Pedestal paver with transparent or translucent inserts

A pedestal paver has a plurality of apertures. There are a plurality of waveguide inserts wherein there is one waveguide insert in one apertures. The waveguide inserts are formed from a transparent or translucent material to permit light generated from a light source disposed vertically below the pedestal paver to shine upwardly through the waveguide insert. The waveguide inserts have a configuration that is complementary to the portion of the body of the pedestal paver that defines the aperture. The pedestal paver is supported by the pedestal at a corner of the paver.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CUSTOMIZING A PLAYING FIELD
20190017230 · 2019-01-17 ·

A customizable playing field includes a turf system comprising a tile with a turf layer. The tile overlays a subfloor, defining a reservoir thereunder. A forced air system includes a pipe disposed within the reservoir and operatively coupled to a pump; and a sensor. A control system controls the pump, and includes a processor in data communication with at least one input/output device and computer memory. The computer memory has a program with machine readable instructions that, when effected by the processor, perform the following steps: if the temperature is above a predetermined threshold as measured by the sensor, forcing a cool fluid through the pipe; and if the temperature is below a predetermined threshold as measured by the sensor, forcing a warm fluid through the pipe.

Illuminated paver

An illuminated paver comprises a body including a top part having a decorative outer surface and a separate bottom part attached to the top part. The body houses a light source to be electrically connected to an associated external power source. An inner surface of at least one of the top part and the bottom part includes a plurality of strengthening ribs extending between the top and bottom parts of the body. The strengthening ribs are configured to reflect light emitted from the light source so as to randomly disperse light passing through the decorative outer surface. An electrical cord wrap is provided on an outer surface the bottom part and includes a plurality of cord receiving recesses.
