Hyper Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 We all wish we could duel on those virtual simulators like on the TV show right? Check out this link aboutthe new holographic technology. [url]http://www.technologyreview.com/articles/focuson1102.asp[/url] The one that caught my attention was the first and seconf. It mentions that it could be good for battlefield visualazation. A good battlefield to duel? Or two LCD screens (No idea what it is) from the dueling stations? A virtual simulator likes from the show! The clear sphere would be bewteen the stations where the duelist would stand, and you'd fight as your monsters are projected as 3-D images inside a clear sphere. Or the screens would create that multi-dimentional effect. How would it work? Would you swipe the cards through an E-reader of some sort, or would it just scan the cards' pictures to bring up the data and hologram? Now it may not be possible now, but think ahead, as technology advances we could use Virtual Dueling Systems for tournaments instead of sitting at tables!

Circ Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 That would be truely cool! You know, they [i]could[/i] have picture scanners: there are very advanced cryptographic retrieving program existing already, which could easily pick up data "hidden" in the card's picture. The idea's fascinating. All we are missing are millenium items XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 That would be amazing but I'm sure it would be so really expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted November 17, 2002 Author Share Posted November 17, 2002 It [i]would[/i] be expensive. But If thy had some (20-30) of these at the Yu-Gi-Oh! Finals (A tournament with six competing countries Japan, USA, Taiwon. Canada, UK, and I forget the other one that have a competition to find out the best player) it would be so cool. And if only they'd brodcast it on TV, it would be so productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domon Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 *Drools at the thought of actually seeing a holographic projection of Blue Eyes* Ahem...Uhhhhh excuse me i have to go wipe the drool of my clothes, this does sound awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Dragon Fou Lu Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 it would be cool but instead of making it only work for yugioh cards they should make it work for other future releases too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Tremaine Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 It would be absolutely fantastic if they could do that. It almost makes me want to take up the card game now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted November 17, 2002 Author Share Posted November 17, 2002 And if they did that with the card game, who knows, maybe they'll do it for Dungeon Dice Monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iggy Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 dungeon dice monsters field would be even more complex so that would cost probably 100-700 dollars more it would be really cool if they made one for the card game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted November 17, 2002 Author Share Posted November 17, 2002 The card game simulator seems possible. But they'll have to advance the technology so maybe they could make one in around 50-100 years. lol Its definatly possible though. Just maybe not now.

iggy Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Yeah it is possbile but right now the technology world is in bad shape Maybe in like 5-20 years well have 3d yugioh dueling simulators but I doubt yugioh will be pouplar in 20 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted November 17, 2002 Author Share Posted November 17, 2002 Thats the problem... Seeing as Pokemon isn't as popular as it was a couple years ago, Yu-Gi-Oh! might not last as long/longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinetic Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 [color=darkblue] But in 5-20 years, we will have other card games. This is really captivating and I love the idea. I never really thought of something like this, but with the way technology has been progressing over the past few years, I would be surprised to see it some time in the near yet not-so-near future.

Kenso Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Just to let you know, the technology does exist to create these. The problem is that they would need to be constantly reprogrammed for new cards, and holographic projectors are annoyingly hard to keep running correctly for that amount of use. And I mean they have the technology to set them up exactly as they are in the show. Now the portable ones like what Kaiba uses....I don't think so. We're not quite that advanced just yet.

DeathBug Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Heh, my best friend and I would pay to go into a booth and play the game, but we'd never attack; we'd just keep summoning monsters and seeing how cool they look. One duel would last for hours.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 This would be awesome. I was thinking though, would he have to buy new cards to replace the current ones? Ones that could be read by some sort of chip? I thought they could make it so that maybe it would see the picture, and send out a sort of holograpic image that is programed to be sent out on viewing of that one picture. Or, they better let us trade in our current cards for the new ones so we can keep our decks the same. Also, one other problem. What about card protectors? Our cards would get messed up, I was thinking plastic cards. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueEyesToon Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 They do have them!!!! One of my freinds went to Japan and got one, it's a bit wierd though, the monsters are really small, the blue eyes ultimate doesn't roar, it squeaks. they're cool though, bigger and better ones are gonna come out soon.

G/S/B Master Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Instead of holographical picture scanners,you could type in the card code.The one without codes you could look in the card list in the menu of the side of your field and search for it :D.But pictures are more better.

Barrel_Dragon19 Posted November 28, 2002 Share Posted November 28, 2002 An actual simulator would be so COOL! It would change dueling for the better...if they could make them cheap and small like as small as a board game...for home use it would be so kewl...have you ever noticed the eight digit number on the bottom left hand corner of the cards...if they could find a way to scan that, then they'd be in buisness...exept for a small prob, lol it isn't on ritual cards and maybe some others...

Solo Tremaine Posted November 28, 2002 Share Posted November 28, 2002 That could easily be changed. They'd just have to make new cards. This could stop card theft, too, if you think about it- if your cards were electronically registered onto a mainframe or whatever, then, if they got stolen, it could automatically lose anyone who uses them the fight, so they'll know not to trade cards with thieves. That would be interesting. Or there could be another type of security feature that could help try and prevent card theft. It could make trading difficult, though, having to re-register cards and stuff. Maybe it woulnd't work so well, actually, because all they'd need to do would be to change the registration. Unless, of course, you had to authorise the trade first. Then it'd be okay. But I have a wild, far-fetched imagination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrel_Dragon19 Posted November 28, 2002 Share Posted November 28, 2002 Well the thing about that is that you would have to buy all new cards...and I AM NOT GOING TO DO THAT...I have almost $300-$400 dollars invested in my cards...I'm not throwing them away and spending another $300-$400 dollars on my cards...they would have to give the cards away for that to work right...could work if Upper-Deck gave you the same amount and same cards as you did before...then the old cards would just collect dust...
