Brass Monkey®, today announced it has joined the ng Connect program and will showcase its new immersive mobile technology in a new solution concept from the program, the Gametime Media Table demonstration in the Alcatel-Lucent booth #35469, South Hall Upper during the Consumer Electronics Show from January 6th- 9th, 2011.
ng Connect is the telecom industry’s leading ecosystem for the creation of next-generation fixed and mobile broadband services based on Long Term Evolution (LTE) and other high bandwidth technologies.
Brass Monkey® enables smartphones to become game controllers similar to the Nintendo Wii.
"Through our membership, we will bring Brass Monkey controller technology to content providers, game companies and digital agencies by offering immersive interactivity between smart phones, online games and digital marketing campaigns,” said Jim Bull, CEO of Brass Monkey.
The Gametime Media Table is a network-connected table which provides advertisements and media in a variety of retail and hospitality environments, enticing customers to “try before you buy”.
In this showcase demo at CES 2011, the user can play the Suzuki Kizashi™ Ring of Fire racing game using a smartphone as a controller, as well as a head-to-head Android versus iPhone Boat Racing game. Additionally, the demonstration will highlight how potential advertising opportunities can be integrated into the service with a featured Suzuki advertisement.
”We’re pleased to have Brass Monkey join the ng Connect Program and bring their expertise in software development, mobile applications and immersive experiences to our collaborative work,” stated Steve West, Vice President, Emerging Technology and Media Group, Alcatel-Lucent and founding member, ng Connect Program. “Brass Monkey was instrumental in helping us connect devices to the Gametime Media Table to simulate the ease and convenience this retail solution for next generation networks can deliver to consumers, retailers, and content providers.”
