The project was developed in collaboration with a business incubator program to create software for Lenovo’s newly introduced augmented reality glasses, in partnership with Qualcomm Snapdragon and Deutsche Telekom. The goal was to develop a functional AR system specifically designed for use with bumper cars.

As an innovative new development, the project set new standards in the field of AR applications for fast-moving objects. The biggest challenge was to precisely capture the position and speed of the bumper cars in real time using inside-out, camera-based tracking technology. The system was intended to provide a seamless and fun experience while ensuring user safety at all times.

The system used real-time position data streaming via a dedicated tracking server to accurately represent the movement of the bumper cars in AR. Special attention was given to securing data transmission as well as implementing monitoring mechanisms for stability and performance during operation.
