Virtual Action Figures ™

Virtual Action Figures ™ or “VAF” is an augmented
reality based experience meant to bridge the gap between toys
and video games. They blend the versatility of digital media with
the physical interaction we get with real world models. Using the
camera, the player will aim a mobile device at a target image. The
app will make it appear as though the figure is standing right there
on that real world surface (IE coffee table, floor, couch, etc.). Using
the player controls, the user can then manipulate the figure in
various ways. Walk, run, jump, shoot, fight, even dance, the player
will have total control over the model. Virtual Action Figures™ also offer the ability for interaction between other VAFs. You can
do timed obstacle courses together or even fight. The real beauty
of the Virtual Action Figures™ game play is that the player's
point of view isn't dictated by a predetermined set of camera
angles. The player's own physical position determines his
experience.
Virtual Action Figures™ can be distributed through mobile app stores or attached to physical media, (magazines, fliers) and actual action figures themselves. Players can collect them, enhance them, and even fight them. VAF is also set up to take advantage of new emerging technologies like camera ready VR headsets.
