TARGET GAME AND METHOD OF PLAYING THE TARGET GAME
A kit and a method of playing a game with a kit having: (a) a plurality of stackable objects including one or more images thereon; (b) one or more target selectors including one or more images thereon which correspond to the one or more images of the plurality of stackable objects; and (c) one or more aiming objects.
Projectile Target Game
Reactive targets and target frames are provided that react to being impacted by a projectile in such a manner as to cause longitudinal movement and/or rotation of the target frame. The movement, in turn, exposes different primary targets and/or a secondary target(s) to the participant. Participants can take either offensive shots against the competitor's targets or defensive shots to protect their targets from being impacted by the competitor.
Smart Home Basket
An exemplary apparatus includes at least one processor, sensor, transmitter, and power source. The at least one sensor can be configured to detect discs with an attached tracker, or from vibrations, motion, or other types of sensors capable of determining the presence of the disc from the apparatus. The at least one processor receives signals from the sensor(s) to determine that a disc has landed proximate to the apparatus before controlling the at least one transmitter to send a message indicating the disc's proximity. An exemplary system includes a disc golf basket with an open-topped basket. An exemplary method is directed to a method of marking discs with an attached tracker that transmits wireless signals and detecting discs with an apparatus. Detecting discs includes receiving the wireless signals, determining that the disc has landed in proximity to the apparatus, and sending a message to an application on a mobile device.
BEVERAGE DARTS GAME AND METHOD OF PLAY
A game apparatus having two base stations, each with an adjustable recessed area for placement of one of a number of can containing liquids having varying diameters, the base stations having magnets disposed in storage areas for storage of projectile devices used to pierce the cans placed in the base stations.
KIT AND METHOD FOR AN INTERCHANGEABLE GRAPHIC FOR GAME EQUIPMENT, AND EQUIPMENT PROVIDED THEREWITH
A kit for providing interchangeable graphics on the playing surface of game equipment includes a magnetizable layer having an adhesive on a surface thereof, and a removable graphic sheet assembly adapted to be magnetically attached to the magnetizable layer. The removable graphic sheet assembly comprises a magnetic layer and a graphic that is visible on a surface of the magnetic layer. The game equipment may include a box having a surface and a hole defined in the surface, and the kit installed on the surface of the box. Methods of installing the kit on the surface of game equipment may include adhering the magnetizable layer to the surface of the box, and then magnetically attaching the graphic sheet assembly to the magnetizable layer.
SHOOTING SYSTEM, GUN, AND DATA PROCESSING DEVICE
A shooting system including a target, a gun, and a data processing device is provided. The target includes two or more infrared LEDs, the gun has image capturing means for capturing an image of the target via a visible light cutoff filter provided in its gun barrel while including a switch which operates in conjunction with movement of a trigger and transmission control means for transmitting image data acquired by the image capturing means when this switch operates, and the data processing device includes receiving means for receiving the image data sent from the transmission control means in the gun, calculation means for detecting a light spot position of each of the infrared LEDs from the image data and calculating a distance from the gun to the target and a bullet landing position on the target based on the light spot position, and display means for displaying a result of the calculation.
Ring toss game
A disc toss game that comprises a ball placed in the center of a ring that can be knocked out of the ring to score points, with additional points and bonuses being awarded if the disc stays within the ring is disclosed in various embodiments of the present invention.
