The versatile Ora Table Displays were commended for their clarity, customisation options, and reliable presentation of essential game information. Of particular interest was the launch and demonstration of our groundbreaking Ora Blackjack Vue Display Controller. Seamlessly integrated with the Ora Luxe Winning Number Display, this innovative product employs advanced camera technology for automatic card recognition, providing players with real-time data including dealer hand history, live dealer odds, historical statistics, and the last four dealer Blackjacks.

We also provided compelling demonstrations of our T-Connect casino management system, a critical tool already utilized by numerous casinos across Asia. The system’s capacity to streamline operations, enhance security protocols, and deliver invaluable data insights resonated strongly with operators aiming to optimise their gaming floors.

The popular Blaze Gaming tables, particularly the Sic Bo variant, effectively illustrated how dynamic LED surface technology can enhance the excitement of traditional games, creating a more engaging and visually appealing environment for players.
