SMART INTERACTIONS• Healing event.

• It will start if a player is low on life.• A light will be turned on to mark the healing point.• The player must be in <3m around the point for 3’.

• Triangulation.

PROPERTIES• Our scenario is completely delimited and covered by

our system.

• It takes into account the position, the identity, the activity and the time to adapt the system.

• The system changes in order to adapt the environment to the player before they need it.

• It changes many parameters taking into account the user or the environments requirements.

• The players will not notice any of the devices part of the system.

EXPECTED PROBLEMS• Recognition of false hits.

• When more than 2 players in the same point deal a hit at the same time.

• False start of events.

• When two players can start an ambush event.

• Connection weapon-Player ID.

• In advance stages of the system, a single player will be able to select a weapon from an arsenal.

CONCLUSIONS• Our system can be implemented.

• Low cost.• High scalability.

• Interesting for a wide range public.

• Any age.• Any likes.

• Completely transparent and ubiquitous.
