Dallmeier to Participate in WGPC 2026
The German video technology manufacturer Dallmeier is going to participate in the World Game Protection Conference (WGPC) in Las Vegas from March 03 to 05. At booth T1, the company will present its intelligent video solutions for casinos. Highlights include the new Panomera V8 multifocal sensor camera, AI-based video analytics, CAT Casino Automation Technology, and the Hemisphere SeMSy video management system.
Panomera V8 for outdoor and Back-of-House areas in casinos
Today’s casinos need to monitor not only the gaming floor environment, but also expansive outdoor areas, access roads, and parking facilities – seamlessly and efficiently. With the new Panomera V8, Dallmeier introduces a revolutionary camera that combines state-of-the-art multifocal sensor technology and artificial intelligence in a single system – delivering a seamless 180° view with no blind spots and highly precise analytics even across large areas. Panomera V8 provides continuous situational awareness while also enabling flexible close-up views without losing context. This makes it possible to cover parking lots, delivery zones, or BOH entrances with significantly fewer installation points.
CAT for greater profitability at the gaming table
With Casino Automation Technology (CAT), Dallmeier presents a powerful solution to significantly increase operational efficiency and profitability across the entire gaming area. CAT monitors and automates table games (e.g., blackjack, baccarat) and supports table game managers in reducing numerous manual tasks – with the goal of noticeably improving dealer efficiency and the overall profitability of table game operations.
Intuitive management with Hemisphere SeMSy
For professional and intuitive system management, the Hemisphere SeMSy (SeMSy 5) management software is available. The modular Hemisphere software platform enables individually tailored solutions for a wide range of casino management tasks: from real-time intervention and clear alarm and event management to analytics and business statistics for the entire casino.
Another key focus is the integration of external data sources into Hemisphere SeMSy – in the gaming environment, for example, from RFID, slot machines, or dealing shoes. Via appropriate interfaces, events from external systems can be received and processed in the database to closely link video and events within the workflows of surveillance and compliance teams.
Faster analysis through artificial intelligence: People Counting and Attribute Finder
Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly important in video technology and now extends far beyond traditional security applications: it helps casinos optimize processes and increase efficiency. At Dallmeier, AI applications run directly on the camera (edge), enabling real-time analytics without relying on external servers.
One example is People Counting, which provides reliable analysis of visitor flows at entrances or in large-area scenes by defining multiple counting zones, setting thresholds, and automatically triggering notifications when limits are exceeded or not reached.
For faster research in recordings, the “AI Person Attributes App” is available. It supports the rapid search for individuals when only limited information is available. Instead of reviewing long sequences in full, users can filter specifically by attributes such as the dominant color tone of clothing (upper and lower body); depending on the scene, additional indicators such as headwear, a backpack, or a bag can also help. The results are displayed with preview images and, with a single click, lead directly to the relevant sequences – significantly accelerating the evaluation process.

HIPTHER Baltics: Vilnius 2026 Agenda Sets the Stage for the Region’s Next Era of iGaming Regulation & Fintech Integration
The agenda for HIPTHER Baltics: Vilnius 2026 has officially been revealed, marking a defining moment for the Baltic region’s iGaming, fintech, and regulatory landscape.
Taking place on 21 April 2026 at the Hilton Garden Inn Vilnius City Centre, the conference launches HIPTHER’s new Baltics-focused series, a bold evolution designed to bring deeper, jurisdiction-specific insight and high-level dialogue to one of Europe’s fastest-transforming digital markets.
At its core, the Vilnius edition is built around a powerful theme:
“iGaming Regulation & Fintech Integration” — a convergence shaping the future of compliance, payments, and digital innovation across the region.
A Defining Moment: Lithuania’s Regulatory Reset
Lithuania is entering a new phase — one where rapid fintech growth meets tightening regulatory expectations.
The agenda reflects this shift directly, capturing a market transitioning from accessibility to accountability, structure, and long-term sustainability. From post-MiCA realities and stricter AML frameworks to evolving iGaming controls, Vilnius becomes the place where these changes are not just discussed — but decoded.
The Agenda: One Day, Two Stages, Zero Filler
The newly released agenda delivers a high-density, decision-maker-focused experience, designed for professionals who need clarity.
Across two parallel tracks — Compliance & Operations Lab and TechXperience Stage — the program cuts straight to the pressure points shaping the industry:
On the Compliance & Operations side:
- Gambling Regulation in the Baltics: Enforcement, Gaps, and Political Pressure
- Post-MiCA Survival: Maintaining Your License Under the 2026 Strictures
- The Bank Pivot: SME Lending, EMI Stability & Financial Resilience
- AML 2.0 & MiCA in Practice: Building Compliance That Actually Works

Going beyond theoretical insight, this Agenda is a working blueprint for navigating what’s already unfolding.
Curated Networking & Meaningful Connections
The refreshing morning break and delicious complimentary lunch, will be followed by an evening social gathering at Jazz Cellar 11 –– offering rum, jazz, conversations, and the kind of networking that somehow becomes more productive after the formal agenda ends.
Spotlight on Speakers: The People Driving the Change
The Vilnius stage brings together a carefully selected lineup of regulators, compliance and fintech leaders, legal experts, and technology innovators — the very people operating at the frontlines of transformation.
These are just some of the speakers to take the stage:
- Rainer Osanik – Head of Fiscal Information and Intelligence Department in the Estonian Ministry of Finance
- Ineta Mačinskienė – CEO of Walletto
- Edgaras Abromavičius – President of the Lithuanian Esports Federation and Head of Esports and Gaming at the Lithuanian Football Federation
- Marija Nudga – Senior Lawyer at Tonybet and Legal Expert in iGaming & Fintech Compliance
- Kristina Vabinskaitė – Financial Markets Policy Department of the Ministry of Finance of Lithuania
- Saulius Racevicius – CEO of Pace App and Board Member of the Fintech Hub LT
From professionals securing MiCA licenses and building risk frameworks, to experts advising on international licensing, AML systems, and cross-border fintech operations, the speaker lineup reflects real, hands-on expertise.
These are the leaders and experts shaping how regulation and innovation coexist in real time.
Zoltan Tündik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at HIPTHER, stated about the Vilnius 2026 Agenda:
“Our dedicated Baltics series this year kickstarts in Vilnius and marks a strategic pivot in how we approach regional excellence. Having spent nearly two decades in the media and news sphere, we’ve learned that general insights are no longer enough; the market now demands jurisdiction-specific precision. Lithuania stands at a fascinating crossroads where fintech maturity meets a rigorous regulatory reset. Our 2026 agenda is designed to decode this convergence, helping leaders navigate the post-MiCA landscape and tighten iGaming frameworks. As we celebrate 10 years of HIPTHER impact, Vilnius represents our commitment to staying ahead of the curve, providing the high-level, boutique environment necessary for the industry’s most critical conversations.”
