Tamps, FL and Brussels, Belgium - October 13, 2009

Softkinetic, the leading provider of 3D gesture recognition solutions for the interactive digital entertainment, consumer electronics and industrial markets, today announced that Titan 4 Games selected its iisu™ 3D gesture recognition software platform to develop next generation, gesture-based coin-operated systems.

Titan 4 Games, Tampa, Florida, designs, manufactures and markets gaming terminals for the coin-operated amusement market. The new and innovative products created by Titan incorporate Softkinetic’s cutting edge technology and will create an industry leading experience.

"Softkinetic 3D gesture recognition technology allows us to bring to the market revolutionary products where players interact directly with the game, without the need of any controller or hand-held device."
