LTRCON - Laser Tag Equipments

The potential of a laser tag arena

Laser tag is no longer just a game for kids. What started as a sci-fi inspired game has grown into an interactive, sporting experience and a serious business opportunity.
Laser tag combines physical fun with digital technology, something that is rare these days. It is a social, competitive, safe and engaging experience – perfect for generations looking for something more than just play.
But how did we get here? Let’s see!

It all started in the 80s, when sci-fi movies like Star Wars captured the public's imagination. The first commercial laser tag system appeared in 1984.
It was simple: guns with infrared light sensors and vests with target dots.
They were more of a curiosity than an organized sport – games played in dark, enclosed spaces with smoke effects and neon lights.

The game began to attract not only children, but also teenagers, adults and even corporate teams for team-building.
With the evolution of technology, laser tag also transformed:

- More accurate weapons, with realistic sounds

- Smart and lightweight sensors

- Arenas became themed: military bases, spaceships, post-apocalyptic labyrinths

- Scores began to be displayed in real time

Today, laser tag is getting closer and closer to digital gaming. The LTRCON system includes:

- Custom game modes: catch the flag, zombie mode, battle royale etc.

- Live score – you can see your progress in real time

- Targets – the ability to add devices with different roles
