A luminous leather for a sports ball includes a base fabric, a polyurethane (PU) layer, a luminous layer and a film. The base fabric, the PU layer, the luminous layer and the film are sequentially bonded by glue from bottom to top. The luminous layer is a fluorescent coating. The luminous leather for the sports ball has an enhanced luminous effect while being wear-resistant. In the new luminous leather, the luminous layer is added, and the luminous layer is a fluorescent coating. In this way, sports balls made of the new luminous leather come in different surface colors to be more entertaining. Meanwhile, a film is immediately coated onto the luminous layer by a roller before the glue gets dry to enhance the luminous effect and the color brightness, while making the entire leather more wear-resistant.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

The present invention provides a sport status presentation system with which a user can easily grasp, by touch, the status of a sport competition in which two teams compete and the players on the two teams capture a single ball from each other while moving within a single competition area and score points by placing the ball in a goal set for each team. The sport status presentation system includes two vibrating bodies, the vibrating bodies respectively apply vibration to sites on the left side and the right side of the body of the user and are allocated to the respective teams, and the vibrating body allocated to the team in possession of the ball, among the two vibrating bodies, vibrates by a larger amount as a distance between the ball and the goal or a goal line of the team in possession of the ball decreases.

The present disclosure discloses a device for efficiently extracting adaptively selected contactless multi-player heart rates includes: an acquisition module that covers a court to obtain videos from a plurality of angles during players training; a valid player obtaining module configured to remove players with low contributions to training and games in the videos; a facial ROI extraction module configured to detect whether the facial ROIs of valid players contain perfect eye region features, and use the facial ROIs containing the eye region features as best facial ROIs for heart rate extraction; and an analysis and estimation module configured to analyze the detected best facial ROIs by using blind source separation, and estimate a RGB signal by a JADE algorithm to obtain the heart rate values of the valid players.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a camera coupled to a processor; and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor. Blockchain smart contracts can be used with the device to facilitate secure operation.

A sports and performance media positional detection system, comprising: at least two elements, with at least one element involved in the sporting activity; a power source; and machine-to-machine communication, which are collectively arranged such that if any two or more elements interact, their electromagnetic properties can be detected thus allowing the position of the interacting elements to be communicated to a decision maker. The system can be applied to at least one stationary element, which can be the playing surface, lines defining the boundaries, or a set of goalposts; and at least one moving element, which could be a ball, footwear, or the participants themselves. The system can also be applied to performance media capture.

A sports ball comprising a cover disposed about a bladder is provided. The cover comprises an outer substrate and defines an outer substrate surface and a feature surface. The outer substrate surface defines a plurality of plateau sections. The feature surface is radially spaced apart from the outer substrate surface and further defines a plurality of indentations and a plurality of protrusions. Each indentation has an indentation terminus disposed on the feature surface and radially spaced apart from the outer substrate surface by an indentation depth. The protrusions are positioned on the plateau sections, and each protrusion has a protrusion terminus disposed on the feature surface and radially spaced apart from the outer substrate surface by a protrusion height. At least one protrusion is positioned less than a predetermined distance of about 1.0 millimeters from at least one of the indentations, thereby acting as a wickerbill on the ball.

An apparatus includes a pair of support members, a cable, a rolling mechanism, a tackling bag and a pulley device. The pair of support members are fixedly coupled to a surface. The cable is attached to and extends between the pair of support members. The rolling mechanism is connected to the cable and configured to traverse the cable from a first end of the cable toward a second end of the cable. The tackling bag is attached to the rolling mechanism and configured to be propelled from one of the pair of support members toward the other of the pair of support members. The cable passes through a pulley system which is couple to a stack of weights. When the tackling bag is tackled, the stack of weights provide resistance to the tackler.

An apparatus includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium to direct a processor to: receive signals indicating a made basketball shot or a missed basketball shot of a basketball by a person during a basketball shooting session, receive signals indicating a location from which each made basketball shot is made, and determine and output a user cumulative score for the person for the basketball shooting session, the cumulative score being based upon the location of each made basketball shot.
