Abstract:
A new type of interactive attraction in mixed reality environment, BLADESHIPS, has been designed and developed. The BLADESHIPS is a game in which players compete with each other by controlling virtually expressed belt-shaped flying objects, “ships”, with their hands in a real environment (Figure 1).
The scenario of BLADESHIPS has won a prize in “MREC2002” [MREC 2002], a contest for entertainment scenarios using mixed-reality technology. It is designed and developed in order to put before the public as a demonstration in “MR-EXPO” [MR-EXPO 2003], an Expo of Mixed Reality Entertainment.
