  • Patent number: 9174109
    Abstract: Golf training devices and related method are disclosed that provide to align a golfer's hands with a club face of a golf club. The training device includes a first attachment portion configured to couple the training device to a golf club and a second attachment portion coupled to the first attachment portion. The training device also includes an alignment component coupled to the second attachment portion. The alignment component can be shaped to represent a hitting surface of a different piece of sports equipment. When coupled to a golf club, the training device can be oriented such that the hitting surface of the alignment component is aligned with a club face of the golf club.

  • Patent number: 8767960
    Abstract: Information, such as audio visual information, is secured by self-decay of the information over time. For instance, a date stamp and decay rate embedded in an encrypted audio or visual digital media file can be applied to decrypt the file to a predetermined decayed state, such as a degraded playback quality. One or more keys can be included with the information to allow undecayed decryption but expire after use or a predetermined time period. In one embodiment, the decayed state can comprise gaps formed at intervals in the information, the gaps having increased length for decreased quality. In an alternative embodiment, the decayed state can be a reduced sample rate for a compressed digital media file.

  • Patent number: 8548873
    Abstract: Product configuration selections automatically cross-over between plural product types based upon end user component selections. If end user component selections initiate a cross-over trigger, the end user is presented with an option to cross over from an initially-selected product type to a product type associated with the cross-over trigger. Upon selection of the cross-over product type, the product configuration is automatically reconfigured to update components selected by the end user for the initially-selected product type to components associated with the cross-over product type.
