Abstract:

A system, method and computer program product for employing augmented reality gaming, including real world geolocation parameters, includes a plurality of gaming client devices; a game server and a geolocation system coupled thereto over a communication network; and gaming resources including a virtual missile object launched by the gaming client devices. The geolocation system determines a 3D real world location of each of the gaming client devices, which are positioned by a user in 3D space so as to launch the missile object at an angle and direction estimated to hit another of the gaming client devices. The game server calculates a real world point of impact based on the angle and direction estimates, and determines if there are hits or misses based on the calculated point of impact and the 3D real world locations. The game server displays hits and misses on the gaming client devices.
