VANCOUVER, British Columbia - UTEK Corp., a technology transfer company, and UBA Technology Inc., a software solutions provider for both the online and brick-and-mortar gaming industry, announced that UBA Technology has acquired IntelliTouch Technologies Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of UTEK Corp.
IntelliTouch Technologies Inc. holds a software license for a technology product developed at the University of Wisconsin that permits greater accessibility to gaming kiosks for individuals with special needs and disabilities. As an example, a kiosk that has an industry standard-sized touchscreen may be difficult or impossible to use for many people with limited vision or movement. With the addition of physical, auditory and visual enhancements, the kiosk will become more user-friendly for individuals who cannot see, read, reach the screen or make fine movements with their arms, hands or fingers.
