iTager is a laser tag system whose developers are bidding to create a fully re-engineered version of laser tag that uses completely wireless and remote-controllable systems and can be played in areas as large as 760 meters, in all weather conditions. This system can be easily mounted onto existing laser tag weapons and purchased preinstalled on laser tag guns made by iTager's creators.
Unlike the systems used in regular laser tag arenas, iTager does away with the cable that connects weapon and hit sensor so you can move freely. Individual and team settings can be changed remotely using integrated WiFi and MESH networks.
The creators of iTager are currently operating a Kickstarter campaign as they seek $30,000 to fund testing, enhancement and preliminary production.
