mirada announces launch of Virtual Dealer Roulette

7 October 2008

mirada , the audiovisual content interaction specialist, is today launching Virtual Dealer Roulette, a product capable of being streamed online, broadcast to television and played simultaneously across multiple platforms.

Utilising a pre-recorded live show, clips are scheduled in real time based on numbers generated by the company's Random Number Generator (RNG). This low cost solution enhances the viewer's gaming experience with real time statistics and in-play data which is then displayed via pre-recorded clips and three-dimensional real-time animation graphics.
The product enables customers to play on television using red button technology or online, where higher levels of interactivity, community features and forums are possible. The product is being shot with first class presenters and in a state of the art studio environment. In addition, real-time player information makes it as close to a live game experience as possible.

Virtual Dealer Roulette, which is easily integrated into existing gaming platforms, is being made available as stand-alone game on the Internet and synchronised with application programming interfaces for existing TV and/or web services. The game will be screened on SKY channel 863.

However, when used with mirada's CrossBet technology the game also includes wallet, license, back office reporting and CRM functions. CrossBet can act as a stand-alone gambling platform or be integrated into any existing gambling infrastructure for operators who are looking to go online, launch new games, launch a TV service or commission a bespoke or streaming product. Its flexible architecture also enables clients to add games from third party providers.

"Virtual Dealer Roulette is the first of a series of video-driven gambling products that mirada is in the process of deploying," explains Jose-Luis Vazquez, Chief Executive, mirada. "Games need to be fun, visual, provide a sense of community and these are all the ingredients we are adding to traditional gambling products. The result is a video roulette that stands out from the competition, applies to both on-line and interactive TV worlds and offers platform operators a great way to differentiate their offer for a fraction of the cost of live dealer solutions".

Ends.
