Battlefield Sports' R&D

Battlefield LIVE is the live gaming phenomenon, great for teenage birthday party ideas. Our gaming guns use a lensed infrared light system, and our patent-pending gaming inflatables enable you to create an instant combat zone, either indoors or outdoors.

Our innovative research and development has been recognized with a national award - the Australian Technology Showcase. Here are the latest innovations:

Digital Small Arms Transmitter Receiver System

SATR has a software configured indoor mode than radically reduces infrared ricochets. The ability of SATR to perform global digital radio controlled start, stop, pause and resume means SATR gives the CO additional control to speed centre through put. Indoor gamers love SATR's key feature in any environment, real time hit feedback via the shooters gun with real time on gun statistics. Statistics includes hits made, kills made and accuracy percentage.

GAMING INFLATABLES
Our patent pending urban inflatables dramatically changes the mobility of the game. Just released is our new small, medium and grande pillboxes. These act as a central feature of your battlefield, like just a fort or emplacement.

Our high wall and low walls in combination with our doorways and windows link together to form an instant maze.

EYE SAFETY
Battlefield Sports™ equipment is based on years of both on field and laboratory research and development. Our Battlefield LIVE units are eye safe. Read our updated "Battlefield Sports Safety Report." [PDF format, 37k]

OPTIK-SENSOR
The development of the perfect sensor to support the Battlefield LIVE game concept has been one of Battlefield Sports' major research and development projects. See below, a photo of our brand new Optik-Sensor. supasensor

Battlefield Sports is committed to relentless research and development. Our new Optik-Sensors deliver excellent long range, reliable performance at the baud rate needed by S*A*T*R. For example, a Morita sniper rifle can routinely hit these sensors at more than 650 feet (200 meters). In testing we’ve even had a Scorpion hit at 850 feet (250 meters) in full sun!

But we don’t do R&D just for the sake of having more useless bells & whistles. Rather we focus our efforts on useful improvements that make the gamer’s experience more authentic and the battlefield owners business better. For example, the main driver behind the new Optik-Sensor was the need to support high speed data transmission with the S*A*T*R system. Our new Optik-Sensor design works with our classic system and, with a minor modification, with the digital S*A*T*R system. This means someone who upgrades to the new sensor for their classic system can easily upgrade later to the S*A*T*R system. And, of course, anyone ordering new S*A*T*R gaming guns will have our latest innovation in sensor technology factory fitted.

The new edition head sensor features a heavy duty 6 core cable (that can also come with an adaptor for our older 4 core plug) that has increased the average life span of the cable. It also supports S*A*T*R’s ability to configure the sensor hit light colour in software. The new sensor comes with a Smokey grey dome that looks very attractive and discrete. Our team has designed a surface mount PCB which has enabled us to keep a compact size of the sensor. Our sensors are approximately the size of a silver dollar. These sensors simply attached with Velcro to any hat or cap or headband as shown above. This is particularly useful if you are using a particular style of costume as part of your attraction’s theming.

The re-design of the Optik-Sensor has also allowed a lot more varnish to be applied to the board surface therefore increasing its capacity to resist water substantially. New dome polycarbonate covers are tough as nails, but easily maintainable.

The Optik Sensors are now in full production, email us today to ask us to find out how you can benefit from it. You can see below close ups of the dome, the velcro, and the ease by which you can dismantle the dome.

WATER RESISTANCE
All Battlefield Sports gaming
guns have a special extra coating on the circuitry. This coating has proven truly amazing advancement in water resistance for electronic boards. While we still do not recommend play during a heavy storm, problems associated with high humidly building up in the case is radically reduced.

Live Game Packs - LIVEPLAYS
Our Live Games vary from basic games to complex re-enactments from WW1, WW2, Vietnam, to modern warfare. Each on has:

  • Video briefing
  • full color conceptual map
  • team briefing scripts (to read to the gamers)
  • game mechanics and victory conditions.

These LIVEPLAYS are fully play tested over nine years of development.

At Battlefield Sports we are committed to continuous and never ending improvement. Please return here for posts on news regarding Battlefield Sports research and development.
