Each runner is equipped with a handheld computer connected to a GPS (Global Positioning System) tracker.

The handheld computer sends the runner's location from the tracker over a wireless network to people playing online.

The positions of players online is passed back the other way and displayed on the screen of the runner's computer.

Alongside this, online players text message each other and the audio from the runners' walkie talkies are streamed to the players.
