A system and method for easily and frequently checking the gas bladder pressure levels in a sports player's helmet and refilling them to maintain optimum head protection for the player. The system and method involve an electronic hand-held gas pump that wirelessly communicates with an adjacent wireless device that comprises a software application for controlling pump operation. The software application allows a user to build a player helmet profile that automatically displays current gas pressure in the gas bladder to which the pump is currently connected. The system and method establish a preferred gas pressure level for every bladder in the helmet when the helmet is being worn and when the helmet is not being worn. Spreadsheets for an entire team can be generated, not only depicting the preferred gas pressure levels but time/date data for periodic checks in order to maintain every bladder to its preferred gas pressure level.

The invention provides an apparatus for playing a game, the apparatus comprising; a moveable portion configured to emit a moving beam of radiation; a detector and a device arranged to be worn by a player, wherein the device is configured to send a signal to the detector in response to interaction with the beam.

Described are balls for a ball sport, wherein the ball includes at least one heating element.

A mobile device and system which simulates human motion. The device includes a base with a drive system for providing motion to the device. A receiver is provided which controls the drive system the receiver receives wireless control signals. Pads and a self-stabilizing component are provided on the device. The device accurately mimics the unpredictable motion of a human motion to provide a safer alternative to live interaction to increase participant safety and decrease the incidence of injuries during practice or drill sessions. The system includes at least one mobile device. The mobile device includes: a base having a drive system for providing motion to the device; a receiver which controls the drive system the receiver receives wireless control signals; and self-stabilizing component provided on the device. The system also includes a transmitter for transmitting the control signals to the receiver.

A testing system of exercise machine includes a control signal source and an exercise machine. The control signal source includes a remote control device saved with a plurality of testing commands. The exercise machine includes a control unit and a plurality of driving units. The control unit includes a first controller received in a control panel of the exercise machine, and the first controller generates an error code corresponding to one of the driving unit when the exercise machine malfunctions. The testing commands respectively correspond to different error codes. The remote control device sends an acquiring command to the first controller to obtain the generated error code, and sends the testing command which corresponds to the error code to the first controller to test the corresponding driving unit, and a testing result is sent back to the control signal source. Whereby, the efficiency of testing could be improved.

A method of monitoring the use of exercise equipment at an exercise facility having a plurality of items of exercise equipment, the method comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of usage monitors, each associated with an item of exercise equipment, monitoring the usage of the plurality of items of exercise equipment concurrently using the usage monitors, and thereby calculating, for at least some of the items of exercise equipment, a measure of the proportion of the period of time during which respective items of exercise equipment are used. In some embodiments, the usage monitors can detect when an item of exercise equipment is occupied, even if it is not being operated, for example using a heat sensor. A graphical representation may be prepared of the usage of items of exercise equipment at each of a plurality of locations within the exercise facility.
