Dallas Mavericks Championship
We created the first mobile AR game for a live sports event.
For the launch of Qualcomm’s Mobile Augmented Reality Platform, we partnered with the Dallas Mavericks to create an AR mobile game during the NBA Playoffs.
AR allowed fans to become players with their tickets; every ticket became a game activation enabling people to play in the stadium and get featured on the jumbotron.
Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots AR
In partnership with Mattel, we brought Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots to life with AR.
With the Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em AR app, players can point their phones at any surface to see Red Rocker and Blue Bomber pop up in the classic yellow arena. Challenge friends to a battle and use on-screen buttons to throw punches and knock their block off!
Quick Draw
We built a multiplayer-doodle-maker. (Try saying that five times fast.)
Quick Draw connects players in close proximity into a collaborative drawing canvas, allowing them to create a work of art together one piece at a time.
This project was our first to implement Qualcomm’s AllJoyn technology, a peer-to-peer gaming tech that enables ad hoc, proximity-based, device-to-device communication without the use of an intermediary server.
Chalkboard
We developed Chalkboard as a real-time collaboration tool to write or draw with others in proximity simultaneously.
Users simply connect to other Chalkboarders sharing the AllJoyn network, and start a session. Each active participant can contribute to note-taking, brainstorming, or illustrating, all in real-time.
Spudball
Remember “hot-potato-hot-potato”? We made it mobile.
Anyone with a mobile phone and the Spudball app can jump in with people nearby to pass the “hot potato” before it explodes! AllJoyn peer-to-peer gaming technology proved a huge hit for mobile games, events, and location-based experiences.
