JVL - iTouch Machines
History
JVL Corporation is a Canadian company founded in the 80's which started as an arcade operator (with a collection of 300 jukeboxes, 150 pool tables and 400 video games). JVL gained recognition around the late 90's for creating touchscreen gaming machines, initially focused on designing high-quality, interactive entertainment machines for the hospitality industry, like bars, restaurants, and arcades.
By 2004 they were already on their 4th generation of touch screen machines, having made machines like the Conquest and Orion, amongst others.
This company is still alive unlike most of its competitors, but they only seem to sell for private sector instead of the hospitality industry as before.
