Wild
Goose Games A Subsidiary of Wild Goose Development |
|
We are a small developer consisting of a virtual staff of programmers, 2D/3D artists and sound engineers providing 3rd party product design and development for engineering projects and coin-operated amusement devices.
Projects:
Commercial
(Coin-Op) Slot Car Racing System
Design of the electronics hardware,
embedded software and networking system for 1/32 scale commercial slot racing
system, controlling slot cars in standalone and tournament configurations for
Raceway Entertainment Systems, LLC.

Consumer
Slot Car Drag/Loop Racing Systems
Currently under development is a new
network based microprocessor driven sensors in an old school model as well as
the High End consumer model. Partially based upon the commercial systems
developed here.
|
|
Designing the electronics hardware, embedded software and networking system for 1/32 and HO scale consumer slot car drag/loop racing system, Logic Controller, display, Track Sensors, 2, and 4, lane power controllers scalable to 2…8 lanes, Christmas Tree, and scoreboards are all networked linked and scalable. Components designed to be utilized within Drag Racing and Slot Car systems.

Data
I/O Board
A custom designed PIC 18F4550 based Data I/O. Has Analog Inputs, Digital Input/Output, and switched Relay Outputs. Has built in memory for up-to 512K bytes of storage.

POS
Smart Cable
A custom designed PIC 18F6520 based Smart Cable is used to replace an Epson type Point-Of-Sale Logging printer pack the data and relay to a PC Data Logger, or if the Data Logger is off-line, store the data internally in 512K bytes of memory.

Casino
Area Progressive
A Casino Area Progressive (CAP) system custom
designed for a Casino Manufacturing company, which supports one to four
progressives. Uses a custom designed PIC 18F6520 based CapNode that is
installed in each Electronics Gaming Machine. They use a proprietary network
that links them all to a CapHost, which is a Serivce running on a Windows
Computer. The CapHost communicates with a CapMeter, which displays the active
progressives. A CapViewer is the GUI used to access the Host and configure the
system. Another application the CapTool is used for testing individual nodes.
There are two models of the CapNode. One is a Poker 8-Line Bus extender for
easier installation, and the other is a wired version. Up to 240 nodes can be
networked and each node has a configured detection type to best detect the
status of game play for the gaming board running in the cabinet.

3D
Slot Machine - “Bingo”
Amusement Bingo game developed for Xplosive
Enterprises, Inc. There are two versions. The Vegas version and redemption
version. Attached are modified scenes from both with the licensed material
removed here! Normally a signature neon on the back wall and an articulated
avatar in the right corner under the spotlight!
Pentium IV version uses XP, OpenGL, Direct Sound stereo.

Round House Bonus (Vegas) Game |
We designed a new gaming computer specially designed and built for this and our future arcade games. Much smaller then any micro-ATX case, 480 Watt power supply, and runs high end 3D graphics cards!

Blue Goose Game System |
(Inside View) |
On the left is a PIC18F4550 based GPIO
interface board that we design. It uses USB/RS-232 and interfaces the Blue
Goose Gaming Computer to a Poker 8-Line Slot Machine Cabinet Wiring Harness. It
also exists inside our new Slot Machine Emulator.

USB Audio I/F Test Tool
|
|
An internal Win32 based test tool designed to test a USB Audio Interface by generating a variable sine wave at a specified frequency and then displaying the received stereo waveforms. |
VIASM (Visual Inverse Assembler)
Symbolic Visual Inverse Assembler (VIASM), an interactive GUI based code disassembler designed with processor plug-ins. Allows binary code to be converted into symbolic source code.
w/6502 Plug-in.
w/Z80 Plug-in
…and other projects protected by NDA from even talking about them!
A couple years ago we bought M.E.L. Mobile
Electronics Laboratory.
