International Game Technology has acquired certain assets including several patents and other intellectual property from Leap Forward Gaming.
The purchase relates to LFG’s SaffariNet Patron Display Interface (PDI) picture-in-picture multimedia ecosystem technology. IGT also agreed to dismiss its litigation with LFG.
“This acquisition builds upon IGT’s industry-leading intellectual property portfolio by enabling us to broaden the scope of our casino management systems solutions,” said Victor Duarte, IGT Global Chief Product Officer, Gaming. “The acquired system-agnostic assets include applications and technologies that are complementary to IGT’s existing solutions, and may help us to enhance our offerings to customers over time.”
SaffariNet Patron Display Interface picture-in-picture multimedia ecosystem technology works with gaming machines and systems to enhance casino operator communications and marketing capabilities to patrons. Thin Client Gaming (TCG) and SmartFloor technology plus a host of additional gaming apps are also included in the acquisition. Leap Forward founder and CEO Ali Saffari will serve as a consultant to IGT to ensure a seamless integration of the solutions and applications related to the acquisition.
