Laser tag Dallas is a sport or recreational activity that is played by individuals or teams who try to tag targets using their devices which emit infrared. The targets which are infrared sensitive are usually worn by the players and some are located within the arena. This game was basically invented with the introduction of the Star Trek Electronic Phasers back in 1984. From that point in time, it has grown to include competitive events for instance tactical configurations as well as precise game goals, combat simulations, indoor/outdoor styles of play and role play style games.
It is a popular game across all age groups and since it does not use physical projectiles like in the case of paintballs, it is a painless game. Venues where indoor games are played discourage running and roughhousing thus making it less physical. There is a wide variation of the systems used depending on their technical capabilities and applications. The game mechanics are linked to the integration of the players equipment and the devices available, environment, hardware used and the embedded software.
The resulting mechanics range from scenarios inspired by science fiction and far fetched video games to realistic military combat simulation. Game play variations are provided for by altering objectives, effects of being tagged, amount of lives, rate of fire etc. Standard solo, team and specialty matches are offered by most facilities as individuals try repetitively to tag opponents.
The specialty matches usually vary with the equipment manufacturer and level of technology. The objectives and missions of these matches vary and they also demonstrate the capability of every system in terms of technology. Among these games is capture the flag, a game where points are scored by stealing opponents flags before taking them to own base. There is also another specialty match referred to as Protect the VIP.
Additionally there are other games such as borg matches, role playing matches, base centric, invisibility/stealth matches, domination, elimination and juggernaut matches. Laser firing is tracked by the systems using infrared signaling. Firing visual effects in indoor games include theatrical fog and visible laser. Except for the most basic, every system sends an infrared signal that is encoded with information which includes the pack identity from which the signal originated from.
The coding is also used to discourage any unauthorized devices that may cause interference inside the arena as well as to provide a way of tracking scores. Indoor arenas are large and run by commercial operators and they may either be dark or not. There is a tight integration between the devices found within the arena and the packs carried by the players and both may be linked to a control computer that controls scoring and other parameters. The same computer also manages games effects and scores.
Outdoor equipment requirements have different design concerns. They should be able to function properly in daylight and in longer ranges meaning they require higher power output and specially designed optics. The units are made up of machined aluminum or poly carbonated plastic giving them the ability to withstand abuses that come with outdoor matches.
Light weight sensors are worn on the head by players which are used to receive hits. There are many countries in the world with laser tag Dallas groups. These clubs use their websites to make themselves known in addition to using on site tools such as Google, Meetup, Yahoo and Facebook.
