Augmented reality apps for the gaming sector are used to overlay real-world objects with digital information in an interactive, 3D space. A well-designed augmented reality app for the gaming industry should be able to identify physical objects in a user's environment and display pertinent information about those objects in real time. Gaming apps typically use smartphone cameras to identify shapes, colors, and text within a user's environment. They then overlay relevant information onto these shapes in order to provide extra context about the surrounding world.
Augmented reality apps for gaming have much in common with other AR gaming apps, such as location-based gaming apps and experimental gaming apps. Pokémon Go is a popular example of an augmented reality app.
A mobile AR that lets 100 people play the game-a leader will create the lobby and users nearby can join. The perimeter of the game will be set by the leader on a map. The goal is to turn everyone red.

Augmented reality games can grow virally within the gaming sector if users share the app with their friends. Many augmented reality games are built to be shared on social media, and have social sharing features built into the app itself. If users want to share their progress in a game with friends, they can jump directly from their newsfeed to the app store page of the game.
AR apps face legal risks associated with intellectual property infringement, digital piracy, and trademark infringement. It is imperative to conduct thorough research of copyrighted material and trademarks to ensure that you do not run afoul of the law before launching your AR app. Some AR apps may also be subject to laws and regulations regarding the use of certain kinds of sensitive data (such as location history) and should take into account the potential for technological development in their design.
