The game of laser tag originiated from technology from the U.S. Armed Forces wherein they developed a system called MILES or Multiple Intergrated Laser Engagement System that would allow them to hold combat simulations. The first public sector invention was the Star Trek Electronic Phaser Gun set in 1979. The first actual laser tag system and arena was Photon and opened in Dallas, Texas in 1984 which incorporated the use of a scoring system and was played indoors.

Is Laser tag in the dark?

The lighting conditions in laser tag arenas definitely lean more toward the dark side (sorry for the Star Wars reference), however it's not played in pitch black. The lighting is typically comprised of black lights, strobes and other special effect lighting and the arena is typically painted with flourescent paint which glows in the black lights.


Where did the laser originate from?

Just to clarify, Laser is correct, and Lazer is not.The term was originally an abbreviation, LASER, and has now become a noun. It stood for: Light Amplification through Stimulated Emission of Radiation. The idea originated in the early 1900's and late 1800's, and by the 1950's was a working science. The laser was originally thought of as useless, but has become rather important today.They have become important, because, unlike any other type of emitted light, their beam remains almost exactly the same width, and there is no loss of light, unless the beam is travelling through a medium like air or steam, where the light is deflected slightly, hence you are able to see the beam.
