HADO is a sport that combines Augmented Reality (AR) technology through a head-mounted display and arm sensor on a real-world court where players can freely run to compete.

HADO is a simple but strategic team sport that anyone throughout all generations can enjoy regardless of age, gender, or physical abilities. Before the match, players allocate ten points across the four different parameters for the bullet size, bullet speed, reload speed, and shield strength in an effort to tailor the game to their strengths and weaknesses.
