Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is gathering widespread acceptance from large retailers to track merchandise. Now, with Progressive Gaming’s Chip Inventory System (CIS), RFID tracking and inventory of gaming chips and tokens is well on its way to becoming the gaming industry standard for accuracy, security and integrity.
The architecture of CIS consists of an RFID enabled gaming chip, chip stations, and a centralized database server. It is the Software System and its interaction with the backend database server that is the heart of CIS, and this is where Progressive Gaming’s Chip Inventory System excels.
CIS allows for the connectivity of many devices and applications throughout a casino from the cage, to the vault, to chip banks, tables and chip trays. This all-over approach allows any casino real time monitoring of chip inventory, instant chip validation at the cage and even provides the movement history of each chip during the course of its life.
The benefits associated with the CIS software are substantial. The casino’s vulnerabilty to potential security issues such as chip counterfeiting or chip theft is greatly reduced thanks to the unique information associated with each chip and validation at every redemption point.
Simply put, you know what’s going on with your chips at all times.
