Abstract: A system for enhancing the safety of one or more persons includes a Personal Safety Beacon (PSB) device that is coupled with a person being monitored. The PSB device is configured to perform a plurality of measurements indicative of environmental conditions encountered by the person being monitored. The PSB device is also configured to transmit a unique identifier associated with the PSB device. The system further includes one or more portable electronic devices that are in continuous communication with the PSB device. The one or more portable electronic device hosts a monitoring application that monitors the person. The monitoring application is configured to notify a user upon detecting one or more hazardous or unsafe conditions based on the information provided by the PSB device.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus for simulating athletic contests is disclosed. A specific embodiment of the apparatus is a football game including a simulated playing field, wherein the play execution and play outcome for each play is displayed in real time. Two opposing players are alternatively on defense or offense, according to standard football rules. The game is automatic except for the choosing of the play by the offensive player and the choosing of a counteracting play strategy by the defensive player. Random numbers are generated automatically by the apparatus, and are applied to probability tables to determine play results. A scoreboard keeps track automatically of the time left in the game, the score, the yards to go for a first down, etc. All aspects of the game are controlled by a microprocessor and a processor controller comprising a control program stored in a read-only memory.
