castAR was founded in 2013 as Technical Illusions after Jeri Ellsworth and Rick Johnson left Valve Software's augmented and virtual reality team. The company developed an augmented reality gaming system that transforms a user's physical environment into a digital playground, creating a fun and interactive experience. Combining hardware and software to create an accessible, unobtrusive, standalone solution, castAR aims to bridge the gap between technology and mainstream adoption, emphasizing fun and physical interaction.
