A hand hold assembly designed for climbers with special needs. The hand hold assembly has a molded body structure with outwardly extending arms and a grab bar extending therebetween. The hand hold assembly has means for mounting the assembly on a climbing wall so that the grab bar may be disposed at various desired orientations. The grab bar may be textured, have a moisture absorbing layer or be illuminated.

A system may include an inflatable assembly having a plurality of members. The system may also include a plurality of sensors disposed at a plurality of positions inside or around the inflatable assembly, such that the plurality of sensors may acquire data related to a shape of the inflatable assembly. The system also includes one or more valves, each configured to direct a fluid into a corresponding member of the plurality of members of the inflatable assembly. The system also includes a processor that adjusts positions of the one or more valves to cause the fluid to be directed into the corresponding member of the plurality of members of the inflatable assembly based on the data and a desired shape of the inflatable assembly.

An apparatus for improving mobility and helping develop back, neck, arm, core and leg muscle strength and coordination is provided. The apparatus may include a body portion comprising a first layer and a second layer and be configured to slide on a floor surface. A method for improving mobility of a user is also provided.

A hoop assembly is provided. The hoop assembly is formed as a basketball hoop or similar having a plurality of items such as food, toys, treats, and the like attached the hoop and extending into an inside area defined by the hoop. The plurality of items are removably connected to the hoop such that, when a ball like a basketball is shot through the hoop or otherwise impacts the hoop, one or more of the plurality of items can be disconnected and fall from the hoop to the ground, allowing the player and nearby people to gather the items.

The present invention relates to a playground interactive gaming system which integrates physical playground play with interactive computerized gaming, thus attracting children of all ages to enjoy healthy outdoor physical activity while playing a single-player or multi-player video game.

Embodiments of the invention provide a plurality of support bars that may be fitted to the corner of a trampoline frame to provide increased stiffness for the trampoline frame. The support bars may be placed over or in the vicinity of the trampoline's legs to create a zone of increased stiffness. The support bars may also serve as an entry point to the trampoline such that the trampoline user need not stand on the trampoline's suspension system (e.g., helical springs) in order to enter the trampoline. The user may be protected from the support bars by the use of an edge pad filled with an energy absorbing material.

A fitness-based playset with integrated exercise equipment allowing parents or other adults to play alongside their children. The play equipment may include a slide, swings, play deck, and other various climbing apparatus. The exercise equipment may include pull-up bars, dip bars, box jumps, core training station, squat rack, and climbing rope. The equipment has a modular design which allows one or more pieces to be connected to or removed from the main structure to provide various configurations.

A bean bag projectile device for use in dodgeball or similar game facilitates a safer, more comfortable, and unencumbering game for players. The device contains two exterior oblong side panels; two circular end panels on opposite ends permanently attached to said exterior oblong sides forming an enclosed hollow core; a sealed bladder against the inner surface of the two oblong side panels; and interior filler.

A system for directly tracking human activity is described. The system comprises a plurality of interactive activity objects such as, construction toys, that interact with each other in one or more activities involving physical manipulation of the interactive activity objects by a person; at least one wearable device associated with the person to track the person's activity by sensing the person's movements, to obtain data directly relating to the person's activity; and a database to record the person's direct activity and at least some of the person's direct physical manipulation of with the interactive activity objects.

A method is provided. A center of mass of the bat is calculated based at least in part on the physical characteristics, the length, and the drop. A first and second mass distribution for an insert having a central axis and a length is calculated based at least in part on the calculated center of mass. The first mass distribution is symmetric about the central axis along the entire length, and the second mass distribution includes a first density for at least one low mass region and a second density for a high mass region with the second density is greater than the first density. Then, the insert is 3D printing based at least in part on the first and second mass distributions.
