Konami Gaming has partnered with Xailient to launch SYNK Vision to the casino industry. The duo will combine Konami’s SYNKROS casino management system with Xailient's advanced AI facial recognition technology.
Casinos will be able to anonymously track and bonus players through the SYNK Vision system. The technology also offers harm minimization and secure identity management.
Players will be able to sit down at a slot machine or table game and log in without needing a card. SYNK’s advanced harm minimization measures can aid in reducing risk on the gaming floor by identifying potential harm that could come from both known and from anonymous players.
Konami Gaming SVP and Chief Systems Product Officer Tom Soukup further explained the company’s desire to offer its clients high-quality products that provide a safe space for players.
He commented, "Konami Gaming is dedicated to shaping the future of the casino industry by delivering innovative and excellence-driven technology to our operator customers, through solutions like SYNK Vision.
"Through this partnership with Xailient, SYNK Vision is another step closer toward proving enhanced operational efficiency and enhancing the guest experience, while prioritizing harm minimization and responsible gaming."
Xailient CEO Lars Oleson described the collaboration as an important milestone for the company and for the industry at large.
He said, "At Xailient, we are passionate about leveraging AI to create impactful solutions. Our collaboration with Konami Gaming brings forth SYNK Vision, which securely and efficiently improves the customer experience and enhances casino responsibility measures.
"This partnership marks a significant step forward in transforming the industry.”
