Hands on: Lenovo's Star Wars: Jedi Challenges is fun, easy, affordable augmented reality |
November 03, 2017
We played Lenovo’s Star Wars: Jedi Challenges, and based on our experiences it's augmented reality done right. It’s affordable at $199, it’s easy to set up and use, and the games are fun, though limited to the Star Wars movie franchise.The kit includes an authentic-looking Jedi lightsaber, a single tracking beacon that you use to establish your location in a room, and an augmented reality headset that you pair with a compatible smartphone. The list of smartphones currently includes iPhones 6 and up, the Samsung Galaxy 7-series and up, and Google Pixel phones, with more being added (most recently, iPhone 8).(Note: Because the headset comes with interchangeable micro-USB, USB-C, and Lightning connectors, it could theoretically be used with any phone that can download the app. However, some phones may lack the display or processing power needed for the game to work correctly.)To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
