App Toys

February 8, 2012

App Toys is a phrase used to describe an all-new range of toys based around smart phone and tablet apps and accessories designed to appeal to kids of all ages. These high-tech toys make use of the latest augmented reality technology that is used in many different smartphone and iPad apps, to create highly original and amazingly addictive games the likes of which have never been seen before.

The App Toys explosion in 2012 has resulted in a whole new category of toys being introduced. These awesome games and accessories may well mean the demise of computer games such as the Nintendo DS which has proved extremely popular over recent years – even though the launch of the Nintendo 3DS didn’t meet expectations.

App Toys

What Exactly Are App Toys?

The combination of toys and mobile app technology has resulted in the development of a number of augmented reality games where the real world environment is added to with the use of a smart phone or tablet camera with 3D computer generated images and sound. A simple description like this just doesn’t do these toys justice; they really have to be seen to be believed.

Nowadays, the numbers of youngsters of all ages using, or perhaps having access to their parents mobile devices are mind-boggling. It is second nature for kids to download and use apps as a matter of course and there is nothing they love more than playing the latest game. App Toys bring together this fantastic technology with a number of different accessories to provide a true virtual reality play experience that immerses players in the game as it appears to take place in their surrounding environment and not just through a TV screen.
