A vehicle configured to move through a network of interconnected tubes includes a body, a motor, a motorized wheel, a biasing assembly, and a first element. The motorized wheel directly engages an inner surface of the tubes. The biasing assembly causes the motorized wheel to maintain continuous contact with the inner surface of the tubes during operation. A waist of the vehicle is constrained by an inner diameter (D) of the curved tube, a radius of curvature (R) of the curved tube, and a length (L) of the wheelbase of the vehicle. The waist of the body is sized such that the vehicle can freely move within any of the tubes without getting stuck therein.

A track set for a toy vehicle includes a track portion and an actuatable mechanism. The track portion defines a track path between a first end of the track portion and a second end of the track portion. The actuatable mechanism attempts to capture a toy vehicle as the toy vehicle moves along the track path, between the first end and the second end, in response to select triggerings generated by the toy vehicle traversing the track path. The actuatable mechanism removes the toy vehicle from the track portion when the actuatable mechanism captures the toy vehicle. The actuatable mechanism may include a carriage that captures the toy vehicle. The carriage is initially disposed in a rest position that is off-path from the track path and is selectively movable, along a carriage pathway, to an actuated position that is also off-path from the track path.

A self-traveling device propelled by a motor includes a tag reader/writer configured to communicate with a wireless tag, and a processor configured to control the motor to propel the device toward a position where the wireless tag is placed, when the device reaches the position, in response to receipt of an operation program from the wireless tag through the tag reader/writer, interpret a command included in the operation program, and execute the interpreted command before controlling the motor to propel the device toward another position where another wireless tag is placed.

The present disclosure discloses an information processing system. The system includes at least two toy battle devices and control devices corresponding to the toy battle devices. A first control device is configured to send attack information to a first toy battle device. The first toy battle device is configured to modulate the attack information into a laser signal, and emit the laser signal. A second toy battle device is configured to receive the laser signal by using a laser receiving component, and obtain the attack information by demodulating the laser signal by using a demodulation circuit; and send the attack information to a second control device; determine an attacked status of the second toy battle device according to the attack information; and send a feedback instruction to the second toy battle device, the feedback instruction indicating the attacked status of the second toy battle device.

Provided are examples of a radio controlled vehicle infrared combat system and methods of gameplay for radio controlled vehicles. In one aspect, the system is comprised of a 38 KHz IR transmitter, 38 KHz IR filtered receiver, an audio/visual display, and a processing unit. The system accepts signals from both the IR receiver and the vehicles control receiver and manipulates the control output to the vehicle to simulate damage. When firing, the IR transmitter is enabled and disabled. The processing unit disables the IR receiver when the IR transmitter is engaged to avoid hitting its own receiver. The processing unit has user-adjustable settings to allow for use in various types of RC vehicles including land vehicles, RC aircraft, and drones.

As an embodiment of the present disclosure, a connection member of an assembly toy includes: a body formed as a solid figure similar to a rectangular parallelepiped, the body including a circular opening in a center of an upper surface and openings of oval shapes in a left side surface and a right side surface; a leg protruding out of the body through the openings of the oval shapes in the left and right side surfaces of the body; and foot models respectively connected to left and right end portions of the leg.
