The uprising culture of fortuitous games has resulted in the popularisation of virtual gaming among both genders irrespective of their age. Through my study I shall work on the different kind of conjoint campaigns which can be created by utilizing motion sensor technology and gaming, which will be more engaging, educational as well as enjoyable for the target audience. There has not been much research done on using this type of technology for collaborative campaigns, and this will create some riveting exploration, my study will dig deep into the challenges and techniques applied by the gaming organizations to overcome the requirements of target buyers/players in the field of education in India. With the pandemic continuing for almost one and a half year, such game application numbers have flourished which uses the cameras and sensor of the device to detect the motion by the children, now these will be customized with the latest technology.

Such games are becoming newly popular by making an active classroom as well as the play room for the children. These applications do not require any external hardware and are capable of functioning through the device like tablet or Mobile phone.
