The present disclosure generally relates to virtual reality simulation, and more specifically, in some implementations, to devices, systems, and methods for use in a virtual reality sports simulation. A system for virtual reality simulation may include an accessory (e.g., one or more of a bat, a glove, or a helmet) for interacting with a virtual reality environment. The accessory may provide the user with haptic feedback that emulates sensations that the user would experience when playing a live-action sport to provide the user with a more meaningful and realistic experience when playing a virtual reality game. Further, virtual reality simulations disclosed herein may include incorporating data from a live-action event (e.g., a live-action sporting event) into a virtual reality environment to provide a user with a realistic experience.

A ball training or simulating device is provided. The ball training or simulating device comprises a modified ball coupled to a base by a motion transfer member. The modified ball allows for a lower, more natural, ball position, while the shape, position, and configuration of the motion transfer member provide for a verisimilar kicking experience. The ball training and/or simulating device can be coupled to a computing device to allow input from the modified ball to be used in a simulated or augmented reality game. A computer-implemented method for conducting a virtual, augmented, or mixed reality game is also provided.

Disclosed is a ball throwing game machine in which, when a ball is hit by a hitting device whose hitting force is controlled by a handle, the ball is thrown to fly toward a game operation part and enters the game operation part, and here, a control device, which has received a light emission color signal and a ball entry signal from the game operation part, outputs a score signal to a score display device that corresponds to the light emission color signal from the game operation part to display a predetermined score on the score display device corresponding to the light emission color signal from the game operation part at the time the ball enters.

A baseball analysis system and method; the system includes a software application downloadable to an electronic-device for calculating and analyzing statistics from a professional baseball player and team. The baseball analysis system includes at least one server having a processor and a memory including a database storing a plurality of baseball-player-related-data including runs batted in, plate appearances, and earned run average(s). The memory further includes computer readable instructions executable by the processor, and the software application downloadable to an electronic-device. A user may input a request into the software application and the software application then determines an output related to the input via the software application. The output is displayed on the electronic-device and may include useful information as related to baseball players from past to present.

Methods for improving simulation of a sporting event by using real-world data are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving player positional data and ball positional data. The player positional data includes an identification of a player, orientation of the player on a field, position of the player on the field, and a time the player positional data was captured. The ball positional data includes a location of the ball on the field, and a time the ball positional data was captured. A simulated player and a simulated ball are positioned on a simulated field corresponding to the field, based on the received data. The simulation is run and accordingly modified based on user input. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

The field of the invention relates to interactive computer systems and more particularly to systems and methods for simulating a particular user's behavior in an interactive computer system. In one embodiment, a computer program product includes a simulator configured to simulate a user interacting with a computer program. The simulator includes a learning mode of operation and a simulation mode of operation. During the learning mode, the simulator is configured to monitor the user's interaction with the computer program for one or more events and analyze one or more current circumstances during the occurrence of the one or more events. The simulator is further configured to record one or more user inputs in response to the occurrence of the one or more events, store the one or more user inputs in one or more data fields, and associate the one or more data fields with the one or more events and the one or more current circumstances. During the simulation mode of operation, the simulator is configured to monitor the computer program for the one or more particular events, retrieve the one or more data fields associated with the one or more particular events, analyze one or more current circumstances upon the occurrence of the one or more particular events, and invoke one or more simulated inputs based on the value of the one or more data fields in response to the occurrence of the one or more events and the one or more current circumstances.

Systems and methods are disclosed for determining that a first end-user entity has performed a task within a computer simulation for which a non-fungible token (NFT) is to be provided, where the NFT is associated with a digital asset. Responsive to the determination, the NFT is provided to the first end-user entity so that the digital asset may be used, via the NFT, across plural different computer simulations and/or across plural different computer simulation platforms. Ownership of the NFT may also be subsequently transferred to other end-user entities for their own use across different simulations and/or platforms.

An upper limb rehabilitation training system in two-person standing type and an application method thereof are provided. The upper limb rehabilitation training system includes an upper limb rehabilitation training platform, two weight-reducing suspending support structures arranged oppositely, and two standing frames arranged oppositely; the upper limb rehabilitation training platform includes an all-in-one computer which includes a computer and a touch display screen, and a periphery of the touch display screen is provided with a grating structure; the upper limb rehabilitation training platform is provided with a two-person interactive upper limb training module including two control handles, a virtual training prop and a virtual training scene. The two control handles are suspended from the two weight-reducing suspending support structures, respectively; the grating structure is configured to identify the control handles and positions thereof. The computer controls the two control handles to perform game interaction with the virtual training prop.

A system and method for analyzing and improving the performance of a body motion of an animal or human subject requires instrumenting a subject with inertial sensors, monitoring a body motion of interest, converting sensor data into motion data and animation, comparing the motion data with existing data for motion related performance parameters, providing a real-time, information rich, animation and data display of the results in color coded displays; and based on the results prescribing a training regime with exercises selected from a library of standardized exercises using standardized tools and training aids.
