Abstract: One or more programmable electronic interfaces made up of a tile, a sensor, or multiple tiles and/or sensors in a network communicate with a computational device to allow users to build programs to be played interactively on the interfaces. The interfaces can react to a user applying pressure to, contacting with the interface or otherwise triggering a sensor (such as motion, thermal, touch, pressure, or other detected interactions). The computational device provides a macro-scale interface of different types. The system communicates (either wirelessly or via a wired connection) with the computing device in order to send and receive information. The electronic interfaces can be tiles with interactive lights and/or sensors that can be programmed into games, designs, animations, light shows, musical instruments, dance routine steps, etc.

Abstract: An energy-generating and mobile-charging apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a housing including a shape featuring at least two lobes; and mounting brackets comprising at least two axles protruding from endplates of the housing for removably securing to a scooter and configured to be in contact with the front wheel of the scooter.
