A frame is provided with at least two holes to fasten electrical and/or electronic devices. The frame includes a single body having fastening means to be fastened on at least one flush-mounted box, and that includes a first part incorporating a hole intended to be fastened on a flush-mounted box by fastening means adapted to fasten the frame on the flush-mounted box and a second part incorporating a hole that is not associated to a flush-mounted box. The frame, at least on the part incorporating the hole that is not associated to a box shows at least a separator element supporting the frame on the wall on which it is to be installed. The separator element is constituted by the frame itself folded creating a flap or rim, the separator element spanning on the whole or part of the perimeter of the frame.

A sports projectile delivery system may control the operation of a launcher to cause an American football or other sports projectile to be delivered to a target location on a field. In some aspects, the system can track player movements on the field, e.g., through the use of a tracking device mounted on the player, enabling the ball etc. to be launched to a player in anticipation of where the player will go. The system may include additional customization and/or logging options, e.g., permitting a player to designate a body position (e.g., above the head or near the knees) for delivery of the ball, designate a speed or hang time for delivery, or provide player data and analytics to an online or otherwise connected database.

A variable-color region (106) of an information-presentation structure extends to an exposed surface (102) at a surface zone (112) and normally appears along it as a principal color. An impact-dependent portion (138) of the variable-color region responds to an object (104) impacting the zone at an object-contact area (116) by temporarily appearing along a closely matching print area (118) of the zone as changed color materially different from the principal color if the impact meets threshold impact criteria. Object-tracking apparatus (808) tracks movement of the object over the surface and provides an image-causing tracking impact signal when the object impacts the zone according to the tracking. An image-generating system (802, 842, 1152, or 1182) responds to at least the impact signal by generating a print-area vicinity image consisting of an image of the print area and adjacent area of the surface.

The protective helmet may comprise a flexible protective helmet that includes a plurality of impact zones that could be particularized to a specific occupation, sport, player-position and/or the individual behavior of a specific player. The protective helmet comprising a plurality of impact mitigation pads coupled to a flexible liner may easily conform to a head of wearer. The different embodiments comprise elements to provide a padded protective helmet that is flexible or semi-flexible, light-weight and adapted to reduce the risk of head trauma due to the multi-layered padded configuration.

According to one exemplary embodiment, an apparatus, system, method and/or computer program product may provide an electronically and programmably controlled remote virtual spectator/viewer device enabling viewer interaction with an entertainment participant in an entertainment forum via an exemplary digital video camera, digital audio microphone, speaker system, and display device system coupled via at least one communications interface to a communications network to allow a remote viewer to virtually interact with and communicate with the entertainment participant in the entertainment forum. Embodiments may include a graphical user interface configured to allow control of a digital video camera, and digital microphone in the entertainment forum, by a remote user from a remote location.

A variable-color region (106) extends to an exposed surface (102) at a zone (112) and normally appears along it as a principal color. The region responds to an object (104) impacting the zone sufficiently hard at an object-contact area (116) by providing an impact signal identifying a criteria-meeting area (1626) where threshold impact criteria are met. Responsive to the impact signal and possibly to supplemental impact criteria being met, a controller (1622) produces a representation of a print area (118) from a representation of the criteria-meeting area by smoothening its perimeter and provides an initiation signal designating a location in the zone for the print area such that it closely matches the object-contact area. An impact-dependent portion (138) of the region responds to the initiation signal and possibly to a tracking condition being met by temporarily appearing along the print area as changed color materially different from the principal color.

A sporting apparatus, system, method and/or computer program product may provide an electronically and programmably controlled sporting device, which may include a sporting robotic device, which may include one or more of: at least one pair of parallel panels facing one another forming a tunnel space, with an array of sensors on an inner periphery of the parallel panels; or a plurality of sensors arranged in an array on an inner periphery of a tunnel space; where the plurality of sensors is configured to detect, and sense a projectile following a path through the tunnel space; and at least one data collection system configured to: capture a time stamp and location of occurrence of a detection event, store the time stamp and the location of the detection event, and analyze a trajectory and path followed by the projectile through the tunnel space.

A frame is provided with at least two holes (12, 15) to fasten electrical and/or electronic devices. The frame includes a single body having fastening means to be fastened on at least one flush-mounted box (21), and that includes a first part incorporating a hole (12) intended to be fastened on a flush-mounted box (21) by fastening means adapted to fasten the frame (1) on the flush-mounted box (21) and a second part incorporating a hole (15) that is not associated to a flush-mounted box (21). The frame (1), at least on the part incorporating the hole (15) that is not associated to a box (21) shows at least a separator element (16) supporting the frame (1) on the wall on which it is to be installed. The separator element (16) is constituted by the frame (1) itself folded creating a flap or rim, the separator element (16) spanning on the whole or part of the perimeter of the frame (1).
