Ball Invasion is the first (and only) iPad application to use the NASA-invented Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) technology to build real-time 3D maps of the environment as you move the iPad's camera around. This is only possible with the iPad2 dual core A5 CPU.

The objective of Ball Invasion is to shoot malicious and cunning balls hiding in the real world, visible only through your iPad2's camera. Unlike other Augmented Reality games, Ball Invasion doesn't require printed or known markers, but instead tracks the environment around you.

The game is available for download on App Store (iPad2 required)

  • @luckymrnic umm ok thanks for regurgitating what can be found with a web search. Which is exactly what my comment called for, so i guess congratulations are in order for that..........

  • @xantheus you crack me up, getting serious over youtube, what a laugh

  • @OcsisDubs haha really pulling the " how old are you?" card how sad........maybe you should get real and keep away from all the cliche comebacks. You have already used 2 how many more are you going to break out?

  • @xantheus how old are you? only a child would take offense to a curse word, telling people to watch their language on the internet? come on get real mate

  • @OcsisDubs then how the hell is it a rip off of nintendo!?! and watch the language, is your brain really that under developed that you need to resort to cursing?? really pathetic.....

  • @xantheus did i say they were the originators? .....oh wait no! so fuck off

  • @xantheus I have no idea what website you may have found that satisfied you, but SLAM is a big research problem being studied by hundreds of people for decades, and NASA is only one player in the field. They most certainly did not "invent" SLAM, and I don't even know what NASA-specific technology this might be using. The only computer vision work I can strongly associate with NASA is the navigation cameras in the Mars rovers, and that was just a great engineering project, not an invention.

  • @luckymrnic Lazy much that is what search engines are for take the 10 seconds to find out for yourself!!

  • @OcsisDubs oh yeah, cos nintendo are the originators of AR....oh wait no they arent!
