Warning: This project uses lasers. Be sure to always do your own testing by meassuring voltage and current and by looking in datasheets. I am not responsible for any injuries you encounter from using this project. Also make sure to wear proper eye-protection.
Open-Lasertag-System is our approach to a build Lasertag that can be played anywhere without the need of setting up repeaters or servers, whilst beeing pretty easy to build and extend to fit your needs. It works decentral using a WIFI mesh,so the range and fun extends the more players you have!
Currently the project consists of four parts:
- The Taggers are fully functional with features such as different firemodes and score synchronization
- The vests are functional and connect wirelessly with the corresponding tagger
- Targets : For those who don't want to shoot at each other can just shoot at these. The plan also ist to intergrate the further into the system for modes like capture the Flag
- Logger: Counts wich target have been hit by whom
This is the repository for the targets of the system. By the time of writing they can only be used toghether with the Open-Lasertag-System-Logger to make a seperate parcour like game.
