Darts is a game that needs nothing more than a steady hand and a sharp eye, and The Social Gaming Group's Flybar Darts 180 is a first-of-its-kind darts system that enhances the timeless experience with machine learning technology and camera detection software that tracks player accuracy and speed. In addition to offering traditional formats like 501, this smart darts system introduces all-new ways to play, like the social-first Darts Quiz experience.
As operators look for more engaging, interactive ways to bring patrons together, they're investing in flexible solutions like Flybar Darts 180, which is available in an essentials kit so that operators have more control over the look of the cabinetry, a turnkey package (complete with software and hardware) and a bespoke option for a truly tailored gameplay experience.
