Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to a case for portable electronic devices. The case includes a body having a receiving portion for releasably receiving a portable electronic device. The case may also include at least one user operable input means for detecting user selection of at least one parameter, and may include a communication module for providing a communication channel between the case and the portable electronic device. A signal determined from a user selection of the at least one parameter is communicable from the case to the portable electronic device across the communication channel.

Abstract: A paintball loader system designed to efficiently deliver paintballs to a paintball gun. The drive mechanism is a screw-type design comprising a resilient auger. A microcontroller is programmed to automatically adjust the rotation of the auger based on data from multiple sensor points within the loader. The auger is mounted such that both rotational axial movements are enabled during operation. The axial movement of the auger is used to maintain a constant force on the paintballs awaiting loading within the paintball gun.

Abstract: This invention provides a paintball pod holder system for convenient one-handed removal and replacement of paintball pods. Preferably, one or more rigid paintball pod holders are attached to a belt or other support. A stiff lining of the inside of the paintball pod holder keeps the holder open at the ends and permits convenient insertion of paintball pods. The lining also has a spring clip function to securely hold the paintball pod. There is also a non-slip surface to prevent the system from slipping against the body during use.

Abstract: A vehicle accessory system for use with a cigarette-lighter-type power socket. More specifically, an illuminated in-vehicle accessory system that reduces the attention demands on a driver by providing clear visual indication of the system's size, shape and location. The described system is a plug-in power adapter consisting of a substantially translucent, internally-illuminated housing.
