Abstract
A method of providing a mobile gaming experience to a group of users of portable computing devices within a predefined spatial area. Positional data and orientational data from each of the portable computing devices is received and stored in a tracking database. Position and orientation sensors local for a first portable computing device are read to determine a current location and a current targeting vector for the first portable computing device. A targeting area within a real physical world is determined based on the current location and the current targeting vector. A determination is made regarding whether the first portable computing device scores a hit on a second portable computing device within the targeting area.
