nCompass is the next generation hardware platform of the Oasis 360 Sentinel™, and is a leap forward in direct customer communication with amazing, advanced media delivery. At a surface level, nCompass utilizes an interactive media window on the main screen of the slot machine that offers dynamic gaming content to the player. Under the surface, nCompass is a technologically advanced engine that includes expansion capabilities, greater processing power and greater storage capability for multi-media content.

nCompass empowers a casino to deliver video or animated content, provides state-of-the-art touch-screen interactivity and displays player points earned in a day (or points earned based on tier ranking). nCompass even enables the casino to target marketing messages to specific players on individual gaming machines.

nCompass has been installed on 34 Aristocrat games at the casino. Now with the power of nCompass, Chumash is able to directly reach its customers with messaging on the resort's full line of amenities including the hotel, casino, showroom, spa and three restaurants.

Speaking for Chumash, Mike Hackett, Executive Director of Slots, said, 'Our customer reaction has been very positive. Because nCompass displays directly on the screen like a picture-in-picture, our players can quickly and easily see their points earned and the many things we have to offer where they can reap their rewards. nCompass is also very easy for the player to turn on and off, so they can keep their focus where they choose.'

'From an IT perspective, nCompass was very simple for us to install and use,' said John Ormond, Director of IT. 'We had no technical issues at all, and as a highly skilled technical department, we could appreciate the backend technology that runs nCompass.'

Alex Goodnature, Business Strategist for Marketing and Promotions, said, 'We are thrilled to have nCompass in our tool box. Directly reaching our players is one of the best ways to market our business offerings, and nCompass empowers us to directly touch our customers on property, during their experience, to further enhance their total experience. Plus, nCompass allows us to use whatever resources we deem necessary to create our messaging, so we can be very creative in fulfilling on the Chumash brand promise.'

Our Heritage

From the earliest days, Chumash children are raised with stories that reinforce two important beliefs that define Chumash culture. The first is a belief in the value of excellence, every task should be embraced with all your effort. Historically, Chumash standards of excellence have been set by the gorgeous and sustaining Valley that we've inhabited for 8,000 years. It is our belief that we need to live up to the Valley in all we do. Perhaps that's the reason that even our simple, utilitarian baskets sit in art museums around the world.

The second belief makes traditional home life unique. We believe we have a special responsibility to provide restorative hospitality to our guests. In Chumash culture it is unforgivable to let a visitor who is tired, stressed or depleted leave your home without making every effort to restore that guest. Simply providing food and shelter is not enough. It is our obligation to transform our guests so that they can leave ready to face the challenges of their journey. Delivering restorative indulgence is our way of repairing body and soul. And it defines Chumash-style hospitality.
