Global Gaming Expo G2E Las Vegas 2013

From 24-26 September, Las Vegas was once again home to one of the largest gaming expos in the world. Every year G2E hosts the largest companies in the gaming industry which, in turn, present their newest innovations to visitors from around the world.

Every year Elektronček also takes part in the fair. This time they showed off their new gaming stations and fifth generation centres. The Elektrina team was also present.

For the automated G4D Wheel gaming machine we received a prestigious award – third place in the category for Best Table Game Product or Innovation. Amid competition from all of the world’s leading producers in this area, this was a great success for us.



G4D Wheel

The Big3Six automated gaming machine is basically a completely automated version of the wheel of fortune. It is an innovative and attractive product which opens new possibilities for the development of completely new games. And because of this, we were not the least bit surprised that this product generated exceptional interest at the expo.

Every machine has three large transparent wheels which can light up with different colours or various coloured patterns and effects. For this device Elektrina developed its own LED controller to light individual segments of the wheel with varying colours and a combined output of 175W.

Similarly, the electronic module for control of the BLDC motors which drive the wheels is a result of in-house development. The mechanical equipment and program software which were developed enable wheel rotation according to any mathematical function. The power stage is capable of ensuring up to 5A of continuous allowable current per phase, or up to 15A for short-term loads.
