  • Patent number: 4973052
    Abstract: An electronic educational toy which includes a housing to contain the sensor assembly and control unit plus a plurality of output devices including visual indicators arranged to be seen by the players and an audio output device detectible by the players. In response to the manual actuation of a switch the toy produces a first signal indicative of its readiness to respond to the motion of the players. A second signal is automatically produced upon the failure of a player to abstain from moving in response to the condition of the indicators. A third signal is produced upon the manual actuation of a switch by the player after successfully responding to successive signals from the indicators. In a preferred embodiment the toy includes electronic sensing and indicating circuitry contained in a main body and base assembly that are physically configured to enhance the teaching ability of the toy.
