智能手机让快餐托盘变身微型足球场-科技频道-金鱼财经网

新华网5月16日电 据美国科技博客Gizmodo报道，几十年前，麦当劳意识到，食物不是吸引孩子们来餐厅的唯一途径。玩具、游乐场和卡通人物也有助于事业发展。现在，恰逢2014年世界杯足球赛，一家叫做Giraffas的巴西快餐连锁店想出了一个聪明的办法，来吸引球迷的光顾。

首先，下载一个免费的手机应用程序。然后，你可以把你的智能手机支撑在服务餐盆一侧的底端，让它的前置摄像头能够捕捉到已插入纸张上的足球场图形。再从餐垫边缘撕下一片，折叠成纸球，对着虚拟屏幕上的守门员轻弹。照相机会检测其运动，并确定是否进球得分。

即使你对薯条没有兴趣，相信成百上千的铁杆球迷们也不会失望的。

A Smartphone Turns These Fast Food Trays Into Tiny Soccer Fields

Decades ago McDonald"s realized that food wasn"t the only way to draw kids into its restaurants. Toys, playgrounds, and cartoon characters all help the cause, and now a Brazilian food chain called Giraffas has come up with a clever way to lure soccer fans into its restaurants, just in time for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

After downloading a free app, you can prop your smartphone up on its side on one end of the serving tray, allowing its front-facing camera to detect the soccer field graphics on the paper insert. Folded paper balls are torn off the edge of the placemat, and can actually be flicked at a virtual on-screen goalie, with the camera detecting their motion and determining whether a goal has been scored.

Do you want fries with that? No, but a few thousand screaming supportive fans wouldn"t hurt. [YouTube via DamnGeeky]
