The invention relates to social activities typically based on physical manipulation of objects to achieve an objective common to the participants or to allow participants to engage in distinct activities on a shared field of play, part of which is physical and part of which is virtual and rendered on one or more displays. The invention provides a system and method to enable multiple participants (users) to engage in the activity sequentially or simultaneously, based on the context and objectives of the game. The activity includes one or many shared physical environments modeled on a computing system and displayed, in high fidelity, by one or more projectors or screens.

Methods and systems are presented in which one or more heavy-duty straps are positioned in contact with a top and bottom of said door and engaged with a heavy mechanism exerting a static tension greater than 10 newtons. A user can exercise using removable extenders attached to any of several loops at various vertical positions, creating enormous leverage along the strap(s). Notwithstanding large kinetic energy imbued upon components during or after exercise as described herein, damage may be minimized by supplemental cushioning.

A golf information service method realized in a screen golf system, the golf information service method, includes: a mobile terminal of each of a plurality of users accessing a server connected to a simulator, configured to realize an image in which a virtual ball is simulated on a virtual golf course such that the users play a virtual golf game, over a network; the server receiving information about the golf game that is being performed by the simulator from the simulator; the server transmitting the information about the golf game, received from the simulator, and information about a course map based thereon to the mobile terminal; and the mobile terminal displaying information about progress of the golf game on the course map of a hole on which the golf game is being played based on the information about the golf game.

The indoor basketball game system includes a multi-paneled folding backboard with a basketball hoop disposed on it. A winged ball deflector is disposed on the ground adjacent the bottom of the backboard and inclined upwards on the board from the bottom edge to form a ball return feature. The ball return feature of the present system via the deflector allows repeated shooting without worrying about chasing down the ball after every shot. Folding side panels of the backboard pivot to provide blocking sides and stability to the backboard, and can be angled to allow the player to shoot from many different positions. The backboard and deflector can be collapsed for storage and transport.

A modular exercise system includes a first strap that has a first end, a second end, a first side, and a second side. The first strap is extendable around a door. A coupler is attached to the first end and receiving the second end to form a closed loop. A demarcation line is defined on the first strap to partition the first strap into a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes the first end and the second portion includes the second end. A second strap is attached to the first portion at a first attachment point and is attached to the second portion at a second attachment point. The second strap is configured to be positioned over an upper edge of a door. The exercising system is configured to engage a resistance band to releasably secure the resistance band to the door.

A game table and to a game equipment for playing a ball game with legs. The game table includes a table top structure with a see-through table top surface. The table top structure has a first and second table top ends and a first and second table top sides extending between the first and second table top ends. The game table further includes a first table side wall and a second table side wall extending downwards from the table top structure. The first and second table side walls being arranged to form a channel-like game space together with the table top structure, the channel-like game space having a first opening and a second opening at opposite ends of the channel-like game space.

Traditional climbing is being sought out by more indoor climbers, however the issue that has arisen is that the only way to learn the method is through trial and error in the outdoors on real rock. An indoor-traditional climbing device (I-TCD) makes it possible to learn how to climb Traditionally in a safe environment with hands on instruction. Provided herein is a cover/shield for an I-TCD that allows not only for the placement of multiple kinds of gear within the I-TCD body, but it allows the climber to fall on that gear placement safely to determine the quality of their gear placement, without the risk of falling upon the I-TCD body. Therefore, the cover/shield provides an angled feature to reduce direct impact injuries while increasing the opportunity for climbers who wish to learn how to climb traditionally.

A mobile molding system, comprising a vehicle and one or more molds arranged on the vehicle configured for receiving one or more expandable nonwoven substrates, heating said one or more expandable nonwoven substrates so as to cause said one or more expandable nonwoven substrates to expand and fill the one or more molds with one or more expanded nonwoven containing articles of three dimensional shape, and releasing said one or more expanded nonwoven containing articles of three dimensional shape from the one or more molds is provided. Methods for manufacturing three dimensional objects using the mobile molding system are also provided.
