The new technology launched by Scientific Games in Kansas will feature the Company’s second deployment of WAVE X™ lottery retail terminals, part of its commerce-ready family of WAVE™ terminals and AEGIS®, the Company’s open-architecture gaming system proven in many of the most progressive lotteries worldwide. At its core, AEGIS includes SciTrak Ultra™, Scientific Games’ instant games inventory management system, and OrderCast™, the most accurate predictive ordering engine in the industry. In Kansas, Scientific Games will supply additional automated workflow from AEGIS and ensure tight back office integration and flexibility with automated licensing and paperless claims.
