Abstract: A digital sound effect apparatus including a force sensing resistor, a processor, and a digital potentiometer. The digital sound effect apparatus may also include one or more inputs and/or interfaces, one or more power sources, and one or more power switches. The force sensing resistor outputs a voltage according to a user's variable force or other input. The processor generates a signal according to a function or look-up table with the voltage as an input. The digital potentiometer outputs a resistance or other electronic characteristic to generate a sound effect according to the user's variable force. The function or look-up table may be changed or modified via the one or more inputs and/or interfaces.

Abstract: A fishing pole tender system for attachment to a support structure that includes a generally rigid base with a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The first side and the second side are physically connected and spatially separated by an intermediate portion such that a support structure fits between the first side and the second side. The first side, the second side or both, may include at least one accessory mounting portion for interchangeably mounting fishing accessories to the base. One or more fishing pole holders are securely attached to the base. The first side, the second side, or both may include a indented portion comprising an arcuate or v-shaped form, a slanted portion, or a combination thereof. The indented portion provides improved attachment to a support structure by imparting compressive force onto a support structure.

Abstract: A fishing pole tender system for temporary attachment to a horizontal support structure, such as a bench seat provided on a boat. The tender system includes a generally rigid frame having a top sized to extend over the support structure, the top having a first end and a second end. A first side depends perpendicularly from the first end of the top. A second side depends perpendicularly from the second end of the top, and has a first section that is parallel with the first side, and a second section that is inclined inwardly towards the first side, with the first section sized to extend over a vertical depth of the support structure such that the second section extends at least partially underneath the support structure. A fishing pole holder is secured to the first side, formed of a hollow sleeve having a notch therein for receiving a fishing reel.

The first side and the second side are physically connected and spatially separated by an intermediate portion such that a support structure fits between the first side and the second side. In an alternative embodiment, the base is a generally rigid hollow sleeve formed by a wall. The wall or either side can include at least one accessory mounting portion for interchangeably mounting fishing accessories to the base. One or more fishing pole holders are securely attached to the base. The first side, the second side, or both may include a indented portion comprising an arcuate or v-shaped form, a slanted portion, or a combination thereof.
