Abstract:
Described is a photo booth kit. The kit includes a frame having a. tablet mount adapted to hold a tablet computer. A cover is included that is formed to cover the frame and, together with the frame, forms a photo booth. At least one panel in the cover includes a chroma-keyed color. Party supplies and props are included. The party supplies and props are formed to depict a coordinated theme. Finally, a photo booth software application is included. The photo booth software application is operable to cause the tablet computer to obtain photos of a user in front of the panel and superimpose the user over a background that is stored in the tablet computer and rendered by the photo booth software application.
Abstract:
A transforming dart mechanism is described. The transforming dart mechanism includes an inner collar and an outer collar. A dart body is positioned through the inner collar, while fins are pivotally attached with the outer collar. A deployable canopy is affixed with the fins. Thus, in operation, a user can position the fins and deployable canopy against the dart body in a collapsed state. When in the collapsed state, a user can shoot the toy dart horn a to dart gun and upon contacting a target, the fins and deployable canopy expand into an expanded state.
Abstract:
A perpetual spinning toy is described. The spinning toy includes a body component and a motor housed within the body component. A power source is housed within the body component and electrically connected with the motor. Finally, a spinning wheel is connected with the motor. Thus, when the motor is activated, the motor spins the spinning wheel, thereby causing the toy to spin. The toy also includes an impact trigger and stop mechanism, both of which are connected with the body component. The stop mechanism is also operably connected with the impact trigger. The stop mechanism includes a latch that is connected with the impact trigger and a plurality of spring-loaded wings that are pivotally connected with the body component, such that upon impacting the impact trigger, the wings are released from the catch, causing them to swing outward.
Abstract:
A metalized plated stylus is described. The stylus includes a pen stem, a metal plating coat adhered to the pen stem, and a conductive rubber stylus tip attached with the pen stem such that the stylus tip is in direct contact with the metal plating coat. Importantly, the metal plating coat is adhered to the pen stem through vacuum metalized plating.
Abstract:
Described is a system for superimposing images captured in a photo booth onto a selected background that can he used for panics and other events and that includes everything needed to instantaneously provide blue or green screen effects to event participants. The system includes one or more processors and a memory. The memory is a non-transitory computer-readable medium having executable instructions encoded thereon, such that upon execution of the instructions, the one or more processors cause a tablet computer to obtain an image of a participant in front of a chroma-key panel and superimpose the image over a background that is stored in the tablet computer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an interactive ball and, more particularly to a ball (e.g., soccer ball) having one or more sensors and an integrated circuit and a memory that are configured to record at least one performance metric from a user that can be implemented through a variety of games and challenges. The performance metric includes a power mode and a challenge mode, with the challenge mode providing a variety of challenges for the user to perform or compete against, including dribbling, juggling, and flight time.
Abstract:
Described is a toy figurine with a removable accessory that doubles as a smart device stylus. The invention includes a toy figurine having a holder adapted to hold a removable accessory stylus, while the removable accessory stylus formed as an accessory to the toy figurine. The removable accessory stylus includes a grip portion and stylus tip, with the stylus up being thrilled of a conductive material. Thus, upon removing the removable accessory stylus from the figurine, a user can use the stylus tip to operate a touch screen device.
