Intel® PXA270 Player Interface Module
May 2000, WorldSmart's business was rapidly expanding. Liquor & Gaming NSW granted WorldSmart a gaming machine manufacturers licence and WorldSmart was appointed VISA preferred supplier in Australia for the VISA open platform Smartcard. The challenge was to design an EMV compliant Player Interface Module suitable for a Club market with over 100 gaming machines per site. The device had to be small enough to be mounted between the screen and top box of an older stye gaming machine collar and able to support an 800 by 600 TFT touch panel for larger machine collars. CCCE is a Communications Protocol for New South Wales Electronic Gaming Machines.
