According to foreign media venturebeat reported, augmented reality gaming company CastAR recently developed a table game product. Based on augmented reality glasses, CastAR superimposes the animated images in the real world, creating a virtual and reality-mixed environment that allows users to feel as if they are in the game world.

The company has already obtained a $15 million investment from Android founder Andy Rubin. Andy Rubin is very optimistic about the company's prospects. He believes that the augmented reality market will reach $90 billion by 2020.


The new CastAR product will be available in 2017. Compared to other virtual reality headsets on the market, this product is completely different. The R&D team has highly creative software designers and has participated in Steam VR game design. Currently CastAR has about 30 employees and will be financing their products on Kickstarter later this year.

CastAR's chief software engineer demonstrated to the public several games based on augmented reality technology. Among them, the chess and card games are very suitable for this equipment, and role-playing, real-time strategy and racing games are also suitable. At present, the company's key research and development products are entertainment products.

CastAR augmented reality glasses can present three-dimensional holographic images in front of the user's eyes, allowing users to feel as if they are in the virtual reality world and be able to fully immerse themselves in the game world. It works by using a special reflective material to reflect the animation of the entire room. At the same time, there is a need for an Android-based mini control console and an operating lever that is compatible with eyeglasses. Users can place holograms on any wall or floor.


One of the games developed by CastAR is a war game in which a player controls a soldier to complete the game. The game is based on the desktop. Soldiers and buildings in the game appear on the desktop. Players can see different perspectives by moving the table. The game supports up to 5 players. Another game is a battleship game. Players can see their own battleships and opponents' warships on the desktop, which is very interesting. There is also a tank strategy game where players can clearly see the various trees, rocks, and flowers on the battlefield, as well as tanks on the road. Only when the enemy's tank enters the field can the player discover the tank.


The player can clearly see all the images by using the operating handle, and there is no limit to the visual field. In contrast, Microsoft's holographic lens eyes have a 20-degree visual field restriction. CastAR glasses are more vivid than other products in virtual reality images. CastAR shows that the precision of the game's images and handles will be further improved. CastAR stated that their goal is to produce a product that consumers can afford. And I hope to improve the player's experience satisfaction and user stickiness. The company's 2016 goal is to gain more developer support and formally release new products in 2017. CastAR brings both physical and psychological experiences to the player. But at the same time, CastAR is also facing competition from Facebook Oculus, as well as HTC and Sony's virtual reality devices.
