With
the dawn of the digital era, a new innovation was introduced to the classic
game of bowling – the bowling scoring
systems. This technology drastically changed the way that participants keep
score of their game by allowing a computer to keep track of the players’
scores.
It
was introduced in the year 1970, but was not instantly embraced by the people
during that time. They continued to use the traditional way of keeping track of
scores, which was done with the use of pen and paper. This is because they did
not trust the accuracy of the new technology back then.
But
over time, innovators were able to create a really good software and hardware
which were able to flawlessly keep track of the scores and bowling enthusiasts
were finally able to appreciate the system. Today, these automatic bowling scoring systems can be found in
most, if not all, of the bowling alleys.
If
you are planning to have a business venture with bowling alleys, it is a
good idea to include a good automatic scoring system
in your new alley bowling construction
plan. Here’s why:
1.
It sets the modern atmosphere of your bowling alley.
These
automatic bowling scoring systems do more than just keep track of the score.
Their screens are home to live-action scoring grids which make the game of
bowling more thrilling as customers will be able to see a closer view of the
ball hitting the pins on-screen. They can even replay the scene if they want.
Aside
from this, their screens are also display customizable backgrounds, animations,
advertisements, and marketing features, which can be another source of revenue
for your business.
2.
It increases customer satisfaction.
Your
customers will not need to manually take note of the score. The user friendly interface
it houses allows your customer to easily operate the system. They will also be
able to reduce issues in terms of scoring as people rely on the system for a
reliable report of the scoring.
The system also gives them a more exciting
experience, because of the modern features it offers, as already stated above.
3.
It helps with running the business.
One
surprising fact about automatic bowling
scoring systems is that it does not only exist for the customers, but for
the staff and business owners as well. Many bowling
equipment manufacturers are working on integrating clerical work usually
done in the back office. Now, the staff can easily create reports, track bills
and payments, and control the bowling equipment with ease.
Hence,
your staff will be able to focus on other things, like giving out stellar
customer service in your food shack or bar, since their time will not be
consumed by working in the back office.

scoring systems developed, as this will surely give their customers a fun
bowling experience like never before. As
Matt Mullenweg said, technology is best when it brings people together.
