The Product- Adidas Originals AR Game Pack Line:

A collection of five iconic Adidas Originals sneakers (the Superstar, Stan Smith, Forum, Nizza and Samba) with a unique AR (Augmented Reality) code on the tongue.

Scanning the AR code with a webcam gives the owner access to the Adidas Originals neighborhood, and the shoe controls angle and depth of the virtual world.

3 games were released, each representing a reference to a cultural or product element that is important to the brand’s Spring/Summer 2010 campaign, such as Adidas Originals Star Wars™ collection.

After completing each game, participants will be able to download AR-generated “trophies” and become eligible to win larger prizes.

The Digital Community: Along side the shoe and the virtual neighborhood, the Adidas Originals line has developed an online community utilizing Facebook (with 15 million ‘likes’), Twitter, and Youtube.
