Why Wireless Head-Sensors are Not Practical

 

Battlefield Sports Offers a Practical Live Gaming Solution, Especially for Large Groups


head sensors

Here at Battlefield Sports, we feel going wireless for head sensors is not a practical solution, especially for very large groups.


Can you imagine 100+ gamers or even 40 or so gamers scattered out in the forest and then a couple of kids lose their head sensor?

If the head sensors are wireless they can simply fall off or the gamer might take them off so it is harder for them to be shot. 

 

Faster Throughput for Busy Gaming Events


 Likewise, if you are running a festival where you have lots of people cycling through fast games, then having to switch the gaming gun separately to the head sensor then this is likely to slow your throughput.

I think that these two items would often get separated and you would need to re-sync them and that would slow down the throughput. The bottom line is that if you are getting paid per ticket then could mean less income for your laser tag business.

No Need For Multiple Batteries  Finally, with the Battlefield Sports solution, the head sensor is wired into the main battery. The heavy-duty battery offers between 8 to 16 hours of gameplay between recharges so this means you can play all day. 


 If your laser tag system has a separate head sensor, such as a wireless system then you would need two batteries. We found that before we had the red-dot scope integrated with the main battery our staff were always forgetting to turn the scope off, so we wasted a lot of batteries!  In summary, the Battlefield Sports SATR offers a practical live-action gaming solution that enables faster throughput for busy gaming events and there is no need for multiple battery types and sizes. 


New Options Without Head Sensors

If you are planning a high-throughput attraction, such as a theme park or village fair, then a laser tagger without a head sensor is a good choice.

The Cobra Striker model, for example, has an extra sensor on the barrel instead of the head sensors.
