AR Paintball
Augmented reality is starting to have an impact on our culture, with developments that promise a new wave of software innovation, and new opportunities for developers and entrepreneurs. Apple and Android have recently introduced ARKit and ARCore, their respective new augmented reality development platforms. This makes it possible for anyone with a smartphone or tablet to access augmented reality applications by using the camera as the source of the interface. Like the strike zone in Major League Baseball and the first down markers in NFL football games, augmented reality layers virtual graphics into reality to enrich and enhance the experience, with graphics customized for a particular interest.
Augmented RealiTease is a full service interactive multimedia developer that introduced its first augmented reality project in 2009, and the advent of ARKit and ARCore makes this an especially exciting time to take advantage of the features and exciting possibilities augmented reality makes available. AR Paintball is one of the fun ideas Augmented RealiTease anticipates will be a big hit with kids and teens everywhere, with augmented reality features that will attract a worldwide interest
Need
While paintball is a blast, it can also be an expensive, time consuming, and messy hobby. AR Paintball takes care of all that, with a cost effective app you can access anywhere, use any time, explore the many immersive features, and come out clean and paint free on the other end.
Benefit
Beyond the advantages of cost and convenience, AR Paintball will expand the interest in paintball and attract a new generation of enthusiasts. Augmented reality adds the ability to create more imaginative obstacles, weapons, avatar opponents, and landscapes as open to design and innovation as a developer can dare.
Concept
The paintball craze has turned into an elaborate culture, one which has evolved in a way that is ideally suited to augmented reality. Because paintball actively simulates the experience of real combat without the risks, the iterations and types of playing styles are determined by the level of realism, and the levels of imagination one can take the environment. For example, the Bushball playing style emphasizes player performance in a natural environment. AR Paintball can recreate now famous paintball venues like Cousin's Big Game in Coram, New York on Long Island, Hell Survivor's Monster Game outside Pinckney, Michigan, Invasion of Normandy at Skirmish U.S.A in Pennsylvania, and Oklahoma D-day (in Wyandotte, Oklahoma). 'Capture the flag,' 'Attack and Defend', and elimination styles can be all be played in an immersive environment that simulates the experience of playing paintball in a format where teams of attackers compete for a fixed, well-defended objective in the landscape.
Because paintball simulates combat, MilSim, or 'Military Simulation' is a natural choice for the sport, and offers considerable overlap with military operations and training. AR Paintball can offer players a wide selection of weapons to simulate a mode of play designed to create an experience closer to military reality, with photorealistic effects that update in real time and layer into each user's unique camera perspective. Speedball and Concept Field paintball diverges from simulations of landscape environments and military operations and instead abstracts the field of play into a more idealized and potentially imaginative opportunity, where augmented reality can show itself to its best advantage. Speedball is played in an open field with objects designed to present specialized challenges, like an obstacle course. Augmented reality allows for virtual obstacles that can far outstrip real ones, and add to the challenge of play. A concept field is a perfect man-made creation for augmented reality, with the opportunity to transform the environment into almost any type of landscape, from an underwater campaign to a Martian assault.
