AR in Mobile Casinos: Expectations and Reality

The evolution of technology is old news by now. Almost everything needed in life can be achieved through a gadget or an app. And yet there are departments that are still discovering their niche in the digital age. Augmented reality is one of those technologies. While constantly in the shadow of its more impressive cousin, virtual reality, AR has, in fact, managed to make itself indispensable, its applications ranging from explaining surgery procedures and trying on tattoos to a promising future in the online casino business far beyond 2019. This last area is of particular interest, because of the possibilities it creates.

iGaming Apps Now

In an effort to recreate the physical experience of a casino, the tech industry has provided players with luxuries upon luxuries of digital entertainment. Mobile slots such as Game of Thrones or Jurassic World have graphics that could rival the best PC video games. You can play games of poker, blackjack, baccarat and roulette with live dealers in your living room or place bets on a wide range of sports from your tablet. One look at the number of gambling apps, services, and bonuses at our fingertips confirms how successful this endeavour has been. The question now is what AR can add to an online or mobile casino that can already offer a 200% bonus and 50 free spins. The answer has less to do with a practical benefit and more with extra amusement from being able to bring a virtual slot machine into the living room too, if not a whole casino.

AR Casinos of Tomorrow

Picture Pokémon GO, but with casino games. It’s not as farfetched as it sounds — imagination is all it takes once the field of AR has enough support from the market. The faster it evolves in terms of hardware and popularity the sooner the iGaming industry will increase its own investment in adopting the technology. If Jenga and Beer Pong are already sweeping the mobile AR gaming charts, then a round of poker or blackjack on your smartphone should be simple enough to play. That being said, several factors complicate the perfecting of such opportunities, like the cost of producing software and headsets that can not only impress users but also compete with the more widespread VR market. Considering how existing titles’ performance is constantly evolving through trial and error, the successful future of AR casino apps can still be reached.

It may take some more time for augmented reality to establish itself as equal in value as other prominent technologies, but it’s definitely well on its way. Online and mobile casinos have long had a strong footing in players’ gaming tastes, so when AR catches up it will only be a matter of imitating how existing quality titles are being constructed. Whatever additional tech will be required, a sound marketable foundation will allow the industry to find its solutions with peace of mind and a bright future to look forward to.

I've got so many tattoos and you know what? I'm still scared of getting them. Oh, and I love writing about the weirder stuff in life. You'll see.
