About the service 1. Background and purpose In recent years, there has been an influx of attention within the entertainment and sports industries toward services that allow people to support their favorite pop stars, artists, sports teams, athletes, and other notable individuals by giving them various gifts through smartphone apps.
The aim of the AR Support Challenge is to build a model in which fans and supporters of players and clubs can have fun with a smartphone game using AR technology while giving gifts, thereby helping to bolster teams and local communities.
2. Service model On match days, fans in the stadium seats use the app for this service to purchase gifts and give gifts to the team of their choice before the match, at half-time, or in their own free time. This act of giving gifts is accompanied by a fun game with AR elements and the gifts can help bolster the team and contribute to local communities. In return for their gifts, fans can receive merchandise, exclusive digital content, and other rewards based around their favorite players.
This is a conceptual representation of the service, and may differ from the actual experience.
About the test People visiting the venue can experience this service free of charge. People in the stadium can point their smartphones at the pitch from their seats to take part in a game for supporting players while enjoying AR elements. Participants are divided into teams and compete in a goal-scoring game.
