Merkur UK partners with UCLan for pioneering research on future gaming technologies
Merkur UK has partnered with the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) to pioneer the development of cutting-edge gaming machines through a three-year research project titled "The next generation of gaming technology."
The project will involve a group of 10 students from UCLan’s technology department, focusing on innovative machine design, the use of composite materials to reduce manufacturing and transport costs, and the application of artificial intelligence in predictive machine maintenance.
“I am delighted to confirm this dynamic project which will bring a fresh and exciting perspective on how technology can be deployed to develop the next generation of gaming machines,” said Sascha Blodau, General Manager at Merkur UK.
“This type of collaboration is a first in the UK land-based sector and the outcomes could well have profound implications for the way in which gambling entertainment is delivered to and enjoyed by players.”
With this partnership, Merkur UK joins the list of UCLan research partners, including NASA, the English Football Association, the Professional Golfers Association, and the International Olympic Committee.
