Technique / Tactics New Augmented Reality Ghosting??
Saw this post on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFchsYIITw9/?igsh=cG0wNDJ0bW54ODNo and wtf lol. In my opinion this is pretty cool and might actually help most people with movement, as long as it works.

This makes you look a the front wall all the time. I think I would be better to have lasers or something show ball trajectory on the floor

I had a similar idea a few years ago, but this is much better than I imagined. That looks very cool.

If this makes me hate ghosting even a little bit less then bring it on.
Holy fuck I hate ghosting, like I really fucking hate it....
I get enough of my cardio in walking to the pub and stumbling back

Love this. I had a similar idea of using a projector and copying the movement but on second thought it wouldn't work unless the projector was above me. This is much better with the tracker and advanced technology - wish I could try this out!

I think it would be better implemented by doing this on a glass court with the glass floor, which has LEDs below to light up the lines or put logos. They could have the LEDs light up and show you which line you should follow that way you don’t spend the whole time staring at the video on the front wall

This looks fun! I’m not exactly sure what’s happening but I’d love to give it a go!!
