LARP Electronic Armour and Shield: Interactive Combat for Live Action Role-Play

LARP Electronic Armour: Where Role-Play Meets Real-Time Tech
Live Action Role-Playing (LARP) lets players physically act out battles and adventures, but keeping track of who has been hit and how much health they have left is hard in the heat of the game. This project set out to make LARP combat more immersive with electronic armour and swords.
CADLETE Designs worked on the electronic armour and shield for a multiplayer LARP game. The system combines traditional role-play with modern electronic feedback. Health-tracking RGB LEDs show each player's status at a glance, while an audible buzzer signals game events and status changes.
The result is an interactive combat experience that feels more realistic and exciting, giving LARP players clear, instant feedback without stopping the game.
