quote "Dear Steve,
Q ) These guns you sell seem to use a different technology. Can you explain
roughly how they work? How accurate they are?
A : There are 5 sets of infrared LEDs on the two LED stand, which would be
place beside the screen. There is a mini camera at the gun. When you shoot,
the camera would recognize the co-responding distance of the 5 sets of
infrared LEDs, and the LCD TopGun system would then calculate the position
where you are aiming at. As this technology is total independent of what
screens you are using, therefore the LCD TopGun system could support every
types of screens. The accuracy of the LCD TopGun is 1024 X 768 pixel, which
is much higher then that of the traditional CRT light gun (around 3xx X 2xx
pixel).
Best Regards

ok now for my thoughts on this:
obviously the leds are relative to how it determines your shot. So how about taking the led boards out of the stands? You would more than likely need to legthen the wires that join them together for your larger screen areas. Let me try and explain through a diagram. As your display gets larger, in theory wouldnt you want to tend to move the leds out the farthest reaches of each corner?
image 1 shows a 19" with the led stands on either side. image 2 shows a much larger display with the leds boards lengthed to accomodate the larger display, therefore canvasing entire area for tracking.
