20 Gun4IR, resurrecting the dead genre of Lightgun games for modern screens (did you know the reason no new light gun games have been made recently is because the technology basically didn’t exist to let them work on anything other than CRTs?)

That's cool, but there have been several light gun games in the arcades during this time. This is a great way to transfer old games onto new TVs.
I wondered about those, like House of the Dead 4, and apparently they work basically the same way as this Gun4ir system (tracking ir LEDs mounted on the screen via a camera in the gun):
