QCI Heatmap: A Modern Evolution of Classic Data Visualization with Cutting-Edge Technology

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Quick Custom Intelligence (QCI) is revolutionizing data exploration and visualization with the launch of QCI Heatmap, an advanced contour heatmapping tool that transforms the way casinos interact with slot performance data. This release represents a unique modernization of classic data visualization techniques, reimagined using state-of-the-art graphics processing, machine learning, and QCI’s proprietary intellectual property.

A Modern Take on a Proven Approach

Heatmapping has long been a valuable tool for understanding gaming floor performance, but traditional implementations were often limited by static visualizations, sluggish responsiveness, and an inability to scale dynamically. With QCI Heatmap, we have re-engineered these foundational techniques using modern high-performance rendering technology, GPU acceleration, and AI-driven insights, enabling real-time, interactive exploration at a level never seen before.

According to Andrew Cardno, QCI’s CTO and a two-time Smithsonian Laureate for Heroism in Information Technology: “The fundamental principles of heatmapping have remained relevant for decades, but previous implementations lacked the speed, depth, and interactive flexibility needed for modern, data-driven decision-making. With today’s powerful graphics processing engines, we can now dynamically render images at over 60 frames per second, making QCI Heatmap the most responsive and flexible data exploration tool I’ve ever built. This new approach seamlessly integrates with the QCI Enterprise Platform, offering unparalleled real-time insights.”

Patented IP Meets High-Speed Data Exploration

QCI Heatmap is built on a unique combination of proprietary intellectual property (IP) and modern visualization technology, setting it apart from legacy heatmapping tools by:

• Leveraging GPU Acceleration for real-time heatmap rendering, eliminating lag and increasing user engagement.
• Integrating Machine Learning Algorithms to enhance pattern detection and predictive slot performance analysis.
• Enhancing Customization & Flexibility, allowing casino operators to interactively explore multiple data layers and adjust visual perspectives instantly.

Replacing QCI Slots View & Expanding Capabilities

With the introduction of QCI Heatmap, QCI is retiring the legacy QCI Slots View module and elevating data visualization to the next level. This tool provides:

– Full Gaming Floor Visibility – Real-time interactive overlays of slot performance, customer behavior, and revenue patterns.
– Seamless Multi-Platform Use – Optimized for both desktop and iPad, ensuring a fluid experience across devices.
– Advanced Metric-Driven Exploration – Deep integration with the QCI Enterprise Platform, unlocking multi-dimensional analysis for decision-makers.

To ensure customers can fully leverage this next-generation tool, QCI College will offer specialized training courses on QCI Heatmaps, covering both desktop and iPad applications.

Industry Leaders Praise QCI Heatmap’s Unprecedented Performance

The impact of QCI Heatmap is already being felt across the industry. Tony Toohey, CEO of Gaming Dynamics, shared his experience: “The ability to see and interact with an entire gaming floor through a dynamic heatmapping tool is game-changing. Our Australian deployments have seen an overwhelmingly positive reception, and working alongside the QCI development team has ensured this tool delivers maximum impact upon release.”

Pioneering the Future of Casino Data Visualization

QCI Heatmap is more than just an update—it’s a paradigm shift in how casinos leverage visualization technology. By combining time-tested heatmapping concepts with modern rendering engines, AI, and proprietary QCI innovations, Quick Custom Intelligence has redefined what’s possible in gaming data exploration.

The future of casino intelligence is visual, interactive, and powered by QCI Heatmap.
