LyteShot presents an open-source gaming platform that marries console-style mechanics, geolocation and AR with cloud-synced real-time play; hardware includes a light puck with haptics (vibration, audio), accelerometer and Bluetooth peripherals that act as portals and inventory, plus 3D-printable props and monetization for designs. Two in-house games (Assassin, Siege) and a third-party Invasion exist, demo shows HUD compass, distance and shield updating live via GPS and cloud, and the stack is Unity/Unreal agnostic.
