Getting Started
Adafruit Playground is a wonderful and safe place to share your interests with Adafruit's vibrant community of makers and doers. Have a cool project you are working on? Have a bit of code that you think others will find useful? Want to show off your electronics workbench? You have come to the right place.
The goal of Adafruit Playground is to make it as simple as possible to share your work. On the Adafruit Playground users can create Notes. A note is a single-page space where you can document your topic using Adafruit's easy-to-use editor. Notes are like Guides on the Adafruit Learning System but guides are high-fidelity content curated and maintained by Adafuit. Notes are whatever you want them to be. Have fun and be kind.

All Joking Aside
I wanted to recreate the professional-grade laser tag experience you find at arcades. After a year of trial and error, I finally have a working prototype. As a massive Fallout fan, I couldn't resist giving the hardware and software some serious wasteland style.The entire project is open-source. If you want to build your own system, you can grab everything you need here:- 3D Files & Instructions: https://www.printables.com/model/1503654-robco-ae7p-lazer-tag-system

Future Plans & Ideas
This is only the beginning of the project. I have a long roadmap planned and would love to hear what features the community wants to see next:
- Compact Match Server: A portable, Pip-Boy-sized server enclosure.
- Custom Game Modes: Classic game modes reworked with unique Fallout twists.
- Weapon & Item Power-Ups: Minigun, Fat Man, and Flamer modes featuring their own custom sound, lighting, and damage effects.
- Vault Dweller Style Vest: Built-in hit sensors, so you can be shot in the back properly!
