Abstract

Sphero is revolutionizing the augmented reality gaming genre by eliminating the need for a static paper marker and replacing it with a fully motive robot. Robotics unlocks endless possibilities for new gameplay. No longer restricted to playing near a stationary marker or the television screen, the player can run around their entire house using a mobile device as a window into an augmented world. Imagine fighting monsters in your bedroom, saving the princess in the kitchen or even taking the virtual experience outside.
