Adverty’s Multi-patented and Industry-leading In-game Viewability Technology BrainImpression™ Now Available Within Oracle Moat
Leading in-game advertising specialist Adverty AB (publ), announced a collaboration with Oracle Moat to provide enhanced measurement and verification across in-game ad environments. Adverty’s award-winning, multi-patented and industry-leading ad viewability technology BrainImpression™ is now available within Oracle Moat Analytics, enabling advertisers to measure ad impressions, invalid traffic (IVT) and viewability.
Adverty’s CTO Calle Sténson says: “We are thrilled that Oracle Moat is taking up the wider industry challenge to measure the impact of ads across in-game environments, and we are delighted that the patented technology we have been developing since early 2017 aligns so perfectly. Accurate and meaningful measurement of in-game ad viewability is a sought-after metric, but more importantly, it is essential for industry confidence in the advertising world we now inhabit and the massively exciting, multi-faceted metaverse to come. Having third-party ad verification from a measurement provider like Oracle Moat is a vital element of that confidence.”
The collaboration with Oracle Moat will allow Adverty clients to measure ad impressions, invalid traffic (IVT) and viewability for In-Play™ ads. In-Play™ gives brands access to hard-to-reach, highly-engaged audiences via non-disruptive in-game placements that mirror the physical ads we see in our offline lives. Oracle Moat’s sophisticated measurement of ads takes into account the size of the ad, the length of time it appears on screen and the angles from which it is viewed.
With over 3 billion gamers across the world, the in-game advertising industry is drawing growing numbers of mainstream brands, with increasingly sophisticated ads yielding impressive results.
Irina Dzyubinsky, Head of Product, Oracle Moat, comments: “Oracle Moat provides trusted third-party measurement of ads across channels, formats and platforms. By expanding our collaboration with Adverty to measure impressions, invalid traffic and viewability within in-game environments, we’re giving advertisers the confidence and tools they need to make more informed buying decisions that help maximize every advertising dollar and deliver better business outcomes.”

10-15% Of Gamers In Florida Show Signs Of Gaming Addiction: Here Are 10 Signs Your Kid Is Suffering From It (And How You Can Help)
Recent studies indicate that 10-15% of young gamers in Florida exhibit signs of gaming addiction. These findings underscore the need for early identification of symptoms to prevent negative impacts on children’s mental and physical health. Gaming addiction, if not dealt with, can lead to poor academic performance, social withdrawal, and even health problems.
Marin Cristian-Ovidiu, CEO of FreezeNova, discusses key indicators of gaming addiction and offers practical advice for parents.
Recognizing Early Signs
“Early recognition of gaming addiction is crucial in preventing long-term negative outcomes,” Marin explains. The following signs can help parents identify if their child might be developing an addiction:
Exhaustion and Irritability
Constant tiredness and grumpiness during the day could indicate late-night gaming sessions interfering with sleep.
Gaming Obsession
If gaming dominates your child’s thoughts and conversations, and they plan their day around it while neglecting other responsibilities, it could be a sign of addiction.
Decline in Academic Performance and Lost Interests
A noticeable decline in academic performance or loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities may suggest your child is prioritizing gaming over more important tasks.
Emotional Volatility
Extreme emotional reactions to in-game outcomes, such as uncontrolled anger, known as ‘Gamer Rage’, or intense celebrations, could indicate an unhealthy attachment to gaming.
Physical Strain
Signs of repetitive strain injuries like ‘Gamer’s Thumb’ or ‘Nintendo Neck’ from prolonged screen time are warning signals.
Neglecting Basic Needs
If your child is neglecting basic needs like eating, sleeping, or hygiene to keep playing, gaming has likely taken an unhealthy control over their life.
Creating a Supportive Environment
While video games can be a great source of entertainment and connection, around 70% of people with signs of gaming addiction also experience social disorders. Marin recommends a few tips for building a supportive and open environment for your child.
Teamwork and Setting Boundaries
“Parents and children should work together to create a healthy gaming environment. Gaming addiction requires a holistic approach,” Marin advises. Start by setting clear boundaries on gaming time to ensure there’s room for schoolwork, chores, and quality family time.
Revisit activities your child once loved, like football practice or exploring new hobbies together. It’s vital for your child to take breaks from screens, so create a balanced daily routine that includes homework, chores, exercise and just some gaming time. This allows your child to enjoy their games without neglecting other aspects of their life.
Open Communication
Maintain open communication. Discuss the games your child enjoys and any concerns you might have. By understanding their world, you can work together to find solutions.
Remember, you’re not alone. If you feel overwhelmed, seek professional help from specialists in gaming addiction. Marin concludes, “By working as a team, setting clear boundaries, and fostering open communication, we can help your child develop a healthy relationship with gaming and thrive in all areas of life.”
