Ball Invasion for iPad2: Find & Shoot Virtual Balls in the Real World

Here’s an interesting Augmented Reality (AR) app that is only for the iPad 2.

Ball Invasion for the iPad2

The app makes use of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) technology developed at NASA. It builds 3D maps of the world seen through the iPad 2’s camera and requires the proceesing power of the iPad 2’s dual core A5 processor. The SLAM technology provides tracking for the game’s AR that does not require the special markers needed by most AR apps.

The object of the game is to shoot the virtual balls “hiding” in the real world view.
