===Laser tag===
[[Laser tag]] (despite the name, [[laser]] is actually not used due to [[laser safety|safety concern]]s) is a [[tag (game)|tag game]] played with [[infrared]] [[light gun]]s and [[passive infrared sensor|sensor]]s worn on the body of the players. Since its birth in 1979, laser tag has evolved in both indoor and outdoor games, each with gameplay styles such as annihilation, [[capture the flag]], domination, VIP protection, (usually [[sci-fi]]) [[role playing]], etc. When compared to [[paintball]] and [[airsoft]], laser tag is painless and very safe because it involves no [[projectile]] impacts, and indoor games may be considered less physically demanding because most indoor venues prohibit running or roughhousing.
* Zone Laser Tag World Championships were international tournaments among professional/semi-professional teams from North American, Europe and Australia, hosted every few years since 2003.
* Bi-lateral international championships have included USA vs. Australia and Australia vs. South Africa.
* National tournaments in various countries including Australia, US, Sweden, Finland, UK, etc.
* Private club-level events such as TagCon (annual in UK and US), Tagfest (annual in US), Dropzone (annual in UK), LaserStorm (annual in Australia), etc.
More sophisticated forms of laser tag, such as [[Multiple integrated laser engagement system|MILES]], are used (in conjunction with [[Blank (cartridge)|blanks]]) by militaries to allow for non-lethal combat training.
