Could You Make A Suit For Lazer Tag?

Meh!
Just print qr codes on any clothing you like, different ones for every body part, shape a smartphone into a gun and make the trigger take a pic and run a qr scanner on it, if it recognizes any qr code it registers a hit to that body part.
Or send all of that data to a local server to deal with it faster than the smartphones would.
Change qr codes into distinct geometrical shapes if qr codes are too difficult to pick up on a smartphone cam.

It won't be "lazer" anymore but then again when was IR ever lazer.

Good luck getting the phone/camera to read the code from 5 feet away, much less 50ft.

That's why I said that you could use big geometric shapes. Heck, you could make it pick up solid primary colors.
I also didn't mean qr-codes at the size you see on packaging...you can make that as big as it fits.

Right, I've seen the QR codes posted large on the side of buildings etc that can be scanned from a vehicle passing by...I just didn't picture that being possible (the size) to fit onto a suit, much less multiples.

If you could use primary colors, that could work better at a distance. IDK.

Hi.

Well played

Full body color temperature gradient chart, one side reversed from the other, with a zoomed in camera/ir reader (or whatever can read color gradients). Should be able to very reasonably estimate location based on color temps.

Like one of these:
