By David Y Tan Nov 6, ‘09

Kill Virtual Mosquitoes on this iPhone 3GS AR Game

By David Y Tan  Nov 3, ‘09

Don’t have any real bugs flying around?  Take out your aggression on virtual mosquitos. This game for the iPhone 3GS tests your skill on pesky mosquitoes flying around in virtual space. Watch through the camera and you will magically see dozens of mosquitoes suddenly start flying around you.

This game fully utilizes the compass and accelerometer in the iPhone 3GS for a realistic ‘augmented reality’ effect. The animated mosquitoes are projected in the real world, which you see through the camera lens.

There are two modes:

1) Shoot Out. Kill as many mosquitoes as you can in just two minutes. Fast and furious.

2) Precision. Prove yourself to be a marksman in virtual space. You get only 10 bullets and 10 mosquitoes. Don’t waste your ammunition and time.

You can find it in the iPhone App store.

PS3 Virtual Pet Reacts to Voices, Gestures and Objects

By David Y Tan  Oct 23, ‘09
Too lazy to look after a real pet? Sony launches a new Virtual Pet game for the PS3 that combines elements of Augmented Reality, Gesture Technology and Artificial Intelligence.

The EyePet is fully aware of the people and objects in the room.  It reacts to voices and gestures as well as toys the player puts on screen.

“By completing daily tasks, you can teach your EyePet brand new games to play”

“Poke him and he jumps, stroke him and he’ll roll over in contentment, tickle him and he’ll laugh.”

This will be a welcome alternative for parents looking for a game that isn’t centered around fighting.  And … it may give them a short break from the kids pestering for a real pet.
