    Aren't we all a bit of a Star Wars kid? I certainly was re this week when I verbrachthabe two evenings to fight in living room with a lightsaber against clone warriors and or Bösewichtedes Star Wars universes. Währendich as a Jedi Knight lightsaber waving and light-footed (I assert) insocks over floorboards pranced, power was with me – until battery MeinesSmartphones was empty.

    Star Wars: Jedi Challengesheißt The fun that will be available from November 15th in Germany is undsomit in time for Christmas business and new Star Wars movie to be traded. This is an augmented reality game, short ar. It is prelude to a neuenSpielzeugkategorie that will be more important in coming years Werdendürfte.

    The game of Chinese manufacturer Lenovoin has developed cooperation with Disney. It consists of three components: AR-BrilleMirage, a small, round led beacon for floor and lightsaber. Fourth component must bring players mselves. Without a topical Smartphonegeht it does not; There must be at least one iphone 6, a Samsung Galaxy S7oder a Google pixel. More devices are to be added later, it says on website. ZumStart is likely to deter limited selection but many interested parties.

    The Smartphone is heart

    A current smartphone with correspondingly high Auflösungaber is important, because heart of StarWars: Jedi Challenges is app that gives it to iOS and Android. Before you can get into battle, you have to install it (fortunately, no furr registration is necessary) and n Diemitgelieferte hardware setup.

    First, tracking beacon is placed on ground. Compared to virtual reality eyewear (VR) like HTC Vivebenötigt, Lenovo's AR application does not have quite as much space; Two meters are enough to play as a playing area. The USB rechargeable lightsaber is Bluetooth connected to smartphone and a few times powerful to Justierunggeschwungen. When device is ready, you push smartphone with a customizable slot in glasses and connect both components by cable.

    The glasses reflect screen of Smartphonesanschließend in field of view of wearers. via motion sensors imsmartphone and sensors of goggles, system can use LED on ground to determine movements of players and ir position in room. DieBrille itself weighs about 500 grams with smartphone and is somewhat oberlastig. Siesitzt is refore only moderately comfortable on head, but for lots between 30 und60 minutes it is enough. A plus point: eyeglass wearers do not have to take ir vision off, even if y wear slightly larger models.

    Unlike VR, AR is simply said to work on holograms that appear in room in front of users ' eyes. In or words, Mankann will continue to see TV or built-in closet wall through glasses, which is why you should darken room before playing. In game itself, however, environment is hardly noticeable anyway.

    The lightsaber is actually just a handle

    First of all, I welcome so-called archivist. It leads through game world, which consists of six Star Wars planets at start of sale, which can be sichnach and unlocked. The planetary system is main menu Undmithilfe of light Heavyweight, which contains two buttons and is thus a controller, as well as a head movement controllable cursor can select planets and thus games. At beginning re are three different game modes: Lightsaber fight, Holoschach and strategy fight.

    Of course I try lightsabers first. Dasmitgelieferte Sword is actually only a handle at top of which EinLED is positioned for position detection. The blade is only virtually hinzugefügtwenn to battlefield.  Because handle is well in hand and has a good quality, dieseIllusion works better than expected.

    The sword fights consist of defeating several enemy waves by insJenseits approaching holograms with targeted turns – or by throwing ir laser projectiles with lightsaber. After three successful rounds, EinZwischengegner is waiting for each planet, such as Star Wars BösewichteDarth Maul and Kylo Ren, who are more powerful and have besondereAngriffstechniken. They beat much faster or have additional drones that also fire lasers.
