A basketball system comprising a court system having shot locations defined by shot location lines on the play surface and the shot areas defined by shot area lines on the play surface, and a goal system comprising a respective backboard suspended above the play surface at each opposing farthest end of the play surface, an instrumentation system comprises sensors to detect activities within the boundary line of the court system, and a respective penalty box for each team in which players, coaches, and referees can serve a penalty assessed for an infraction.

A basketball goal system comprising a backboard assembly and suspension frame affixed to the back surface, a suspension structure connected to the suspension frame of the backboard and a goal indication system which interfaces to at least one of the suspension structure or backboard to cause an indication (of various colors) to be presented via the suspension system and/or the backboard which indication relates to the shot points associated with a shot attempted at the goal. The goal indication system causes presentation of a cue on a front surface of the backboard, which cue is of a color corresponding to shot points. The backboard elements and light emission of the suspension frame can be controlled synchronously or asynchronously.

A system for guiding a swimmer that includes a destination device configured to be arranged near a destination location which a swimmer will swim towards. The system further includes directional determination equipment configured to determine a direction the swimmer should swim towards based, at least in part, on the swimmer's current position in reference to the destination device. The system further includes directional guidance equipment configured to indicate to the swimmer the determined direction the swimmer should swim towards, wherein the directional guidance equipment includes a first guidance device configured to be worn by the swimmer while swimming and having first vibration hardware for vibrating the first guidance device, and wherein the directional guidance equipment dynamically indicates for the swimmer to swim in the direction via at least the first vibration means.

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 training and conditioning system including: a training and conditioning system assembly including: a plurality of weights; and a training manual. The training and conditioning system has a training and conditioning assembly; wherein each of the weights are configured to be manipulated by a user-athlete according to the training manual. The plurality of weights are unmarked as to how much each weighs so as to train a user-athlete mentally and physically to accomplish training regardless of weight randomly lifted.

A bicycle simulator is arranged by arranging a front wheel and a rear wheel of a bicycle on the same plane. The bicycle simulator includes a front roller that supports a front wheel of a bicycle that is mounted and rotates together with a rotation of the front wheel, The bicycle simulator further includes a rear roller that supports a rear wheel of the bicycle and rotates together with a rotation of the rear wheel. A first support point at which the front roller supports the front wheel and a second support point at which the rear roller supports the rear wheel are arranged on the same plane. Not only a substantially flat ride path but also various ride modes in which an inclination angle may be adjusted according to a ride mode may be implemented, and a dynamic experience similar to the actual ride situation may be enjoyed.

Disclosed herein are systems and methods that relate to a modular protective system designed to be worn or incorporated into a helmet that prevent collisions with other stationary or moving objects by providing a visual and/or audible signal to the user. The system is composed of sensors that provide both directional and velocity information related to objects within the device/wearers surroundings. A computer device receives this information and translates it into a collision path and notifies the wearer of a possible collision and its trajectory.

A basketball goal system comprising a backboard assembly and suspension frame affixed to the back surface, a suspension structure connected to the suspension frame of the backboard and a goal indication system which interfaces to at least one of the suspension structure or backboard to cause an indication (of various colors) to be presented via the suspension system and/or the backboard which indication relates to the shot points associated with a shot attempted at the goal. The goal indication system causes presentation of a cue on a front surface of the backboard, which cue is of a color corresponding to shot points.

I created the Static Band from a combination of my life's elements; exercise, stability and meditation. Through this process, I developed equipment that would help me run safely on a treadmill while I kept my eyes closed. With the utility of my invention, it serves a range of advantages such as stopping the swaying from side-to-side and allowing people with poor vision to exercise comfortably. My invention can serve multiple purposes from your personal health, for the handicap, to build your mental strength, insuring your comfortability and even for safety precaution. Not only does it stop the side-to-side motion but it can also increase your intensity by the restriction of the backwards movement encouraging you to keep pushing while it eliminates visible distractions around you in case of discomfort.

A toss game apparatus includes a first assembly and a second assembly pivotally connected to the first assembly. The first assembly includes a first outer frame, a target surface connected to at least a portion of the first outer frame, and at least one target pocket that is recessed below the target surface. The at least one target pocket is configured to receive a toss game piece. The second assembly includes a second outer frame, and a bounce surface connected to at least a portion of the second outer frame. The target surface is configured to be positioned at an angle non-linearly relative to the bounce surface.
