BLE OUTDOOR platform - a new generation of electronics for outdoor equipment
The next-generation BLE OUTDOOR from NETRONIC is a new hardware platform for outdoor laser tag equipment. It is available for FALCON taggers and the new AR-15 MAVERICK tagger, combining player-oriented realism with practical tools for business owners.
This is not just an electronics upgrade. It is a step toward more controlled, flexible, and convenient outdoor laser tag setup.
What is BLE OUTDOOR?
BLE OUTDOOR is a new platform that serves as the foundation for all taggers based on the Falcon and AR-15 Maverick bodies.
It combines several key functions in one solution:
- New dual recoil system
- Bluetooth connection with hit detection devices and shock bracelet
- NFC pairing of the tagger with hit detection sensors
- Reliable contactless triggers
- Multilingual voice-over
- Activity tracking via accelerometer
In practice, this changes both the gameplay experience with the tagger and the way operators work with the equipment. The platform is designed for modern outdoor laser tag businesses that want to increase immersion without complicating operations.
What is it for?
The next generation BLE OUTDOOR was developed for existing and new NETRONIC partners who want to equip their laser tag centers with modern game sets. It is suitable for businesses working with players of different ages and requiring equipment that is easy to maintain between sessions.
For the client — more realism.
For the operator — less manual work, faster preparation, and more convenient equipment setup before the game.
This balance is key.
Key Features
Dual Recoil System
Starting with the FALCON Premium and Lux modifications, the new AR-15 MAVERICK taggers receive a new generation of dual recoil, which creates a more realistic feeling for players during the game. It combines impulse and vibration, so feedback is not limited to a single mechanical effect. The result is a more expressive shooting sensation and vibration indication when hit.
Bluetooth Connection with Hit Detection Devices
The connection between the tagger and hit detection devices is implemented via the modern Bluetooth 5.0 channel. This creates a wireless connection between devices and ensures stable operation both in open outdoor areas and indoor facilities or malls. Bluetooth not only provides stable communication between taggers and hit sensors regardless of the type of playing field, but is also an energy-saving technology that increases battery life of the game set.
NFC Device Pairing
Devices are paired via NFC. This significantly speeds up the connection process. No long settings or unnecessary steps that delay session preparation. It is important to note that this only needs to be done once when pairing a tagger with a new device — headband, vest, or shock bracelet. After that, devices remember each other, and there is no need to pair them again. Just turn them on, and they are immediately ready for play.
Contactless Triggers
The new generation uses contactless triggers. This solution completely solves the reliability issues of the previous generation triggers and supports long-term equipment use.
Multilingual Voice-Over
Expanded memory allows several language versions (English, Spanish, French, Ukrainian) of voice-over to be loaded directly into the tagger. The operator can switch them for each team separately before the game through the LASERTAG OPERATOR app depending on the player group. It is also now easier for us to add a new voice-over version upon customer request.
Built-In Accelerometer
The accelerometer adds a new level of data. It tracks player activity on the field and allows the number of steps taken to be shown at the end of the session on the tagger screen and in LTO statistics. Simply put — this is another useful metric for the operator.
What Business Owners Get
For owners and administrators of laser tag centers, the value of BLE OUTDOOR in daily work is highly practical. The system is designed to simplify routine tasks, reduce preparation time, and make equipment operation more stable between sessions.
- One universal charging port replaces two separate connectors, simplifying charging and reducing the number of chargers on location
- NFC pairing speeds up equipment preparation and makes the process more predictable
- Bluetooth connection with hit sensors ensures stable performance in different outdoor conditions and increases battery life
- Multilingual voice-over can be switched between sessions depending on customer groups
- Contactless triggers improve equipment reliability and extend service life
In practice, this means less time spent on technical maintenance and more time for running game sessions. It is a small hardware change, but noticeable in daily operations.
Why Players Feel the Difference
Players do not analyze technical specifications. They evaluate how the game feels — how dynamic, clear, and realistic it is.
- The dual recoil system creates more expressive physical feedback during shooting and when being hit. This gives the player clear tactile feedback during gameplay.
- Contactless triggers ensure stable and predictable trigger interaction without delays or failures.
- Multilingual voice-over helps players better navigate the game regardless of language, which is especially important for mixed or new groups.
- The accelerometer adds another level of engagement — player activity. In addition to standard statistics, the player can see their own movement during the session, making results more comprehensive and interesting for comparison.
FALCON and AR-15 MAVERICK
The next-generation BLE OUTDOOR is available for FALCON and AR-15 MAVERICK taggers.
AR-15 MAVERICK is complemented by side lighting, a textured body, and the possibility of customization with tactical accessories.
Together, these changes give operators two different equipment options on one electronic platform. This simplifies building a unified product line while maintaining visual distinction between models.
Created for Modern Outdoor Laser Tag
Outdoor laser tag requires equipment that withstands frequent use in any weather conditions, rapid group changes, and different game scenarios. BLE OUTDOOR was created specifically with these conditions in mind.
It preserves an active and physical gameplay experience.
It simplifies the operator’s work.
And it gives businesses a platform that can be positioned as a serious upgrade, not a cosmetic refresh.
That is its essence.
Compatibility with the Previous Generation
The new generation BLE OUTDOOR is fully compatible with previous-generation FALCON series taggers operating on the Wi-Fi platform.
This means you can use new and existing equipment sets together on one playing field without the need for a complete replacement of your tagger fleet.
To ensure correct operation and the ability to control all devices through the LASERTAG OPERATOR mobile app, it is enough to update the firmware of previous-generation taggers free of charge.
The update is performed through NETRONIC technical support and does not require complicated actions from the user.
In practice, this allows you to:
- Gradually transition to the new generation of equipment without sudden investments
- Combine different generations of taggers in one game
- Maintain one unified control system through LASERTAG OPERATOR
This is a flexible approach that allows business upgrades without stopping operations.
