¶ ImagiQuest System Overview
ImagiQuest is an interactive NFC-based game system built by Imagination Tyme Events. Players carry NFC tags (wristbands, cards, or tokens) and tap them at stations placed around a venue. Each tap logs their visit and can trigger lights, sounds, and physical effects.
The system is made up of two hardware devices that work together:
| Device | Role | |
|---|---|---|
| Core Tap | The main controller. Manages game logic, audio, lighting, and provides the web-based configuration interface. |  |
| Tap Point | The NFC reader. Detects player tags and reports results back to the Core Tap. |  |
¶ How It Works
- A player taps their NFC tag on the Tap Point.
- The Tap Point reads the tag and sends the result to the Core Tap over a wired connection.
- The Core Tap evaluates the tag against the configured game mode and triggers the appropriate action - playing audio, activating lights, or controlling external outputs.
- The tag is updated to record the visit.
