How Engineering Can Keep
In-Person Casinos Alive
The world we live in today is one that’s moving constantly toward
new innovations and greater tech dependency. We’ve seen the rise of
services that allow you to place orders for meals and groceries,
experienced ride sharing’s transition from horror story to everyday
utility, and watched as streaming services took over television. It’s not
the first thing we think about as we consider these changes, but in all
of these instances physical venues and product stand to suffer as a
result of innovation. And when we think of things this way, another
industry comes to mind as one that’s approaching a crossroads of
sorts in its ongoing digital revolution. Internet-based casinos have
become so sophisticated, and so widely available, that it’s become fair
to wonder if in-person alternatives can continue to survive.
That’s an open question, but thinking of it from a creative engineering
standpoint, there’s more than a glimmer of hope for these traditional
commercial venues.
