The Network Floor Of The Future™ is an evolution, not a revolution that has taken thoughtful and focused implementation. As infrastructure is created, The Networked Floor will have the ability to dynamically and bi-directionally interrogate, configure and move software or data to and from a Digital Gaming Device. And the performance of these Digital Gaming Devices will benefit from any technology that uses digital infrastructure to deliver and manage content, communications and security. This infrastructure will enable new and creative solutions to be brought to market while improving on what we have today.

As evidence of this phased approach, we have deployed our  Bally Server Based Solutions™ (SBS) technology with innovative capabilities such as – software inventory, peripheral monitoring, dynamic configuration control and media display. We see the future direction of this Networked Floor being planned innovation that combines all of the once separate systems under a unified business intelligence and analysis tool set. Some of the examples of these innovations will be:

• Player-Specific Gaming that recognizes a player’s preferences and tastes and delivers a custom gaming experience for them. 
   
• Community Gaming using the floor-wide network to bring new levels of player competition and community that maximizes enjoyment and the casino experience.
   
• Ubiquitous Player Experience combining hardware and software that presents the player with a familiar and inviting gaming experience across all manufacturers’ gaming platforms and devices.
   
• Centralized Management of decisions by allowing one user interface for the administration of promotions, game offerings, game settings and yield analysis.
