Abstract: By providing a playing surface which is dimensioned for enabling a desired game to be played with all competitors positioned thereon, with the playing surface being rotated, a competitive game and/or playing system/environment is created which enables all individuals to compete equally and fairly regardless of their physical capabilities. In the preferred embodiment, the rotation of the playing surface is maintained at a constant rate of speed, although added dimensions and difficulties can be added to the game by altering the rotational speed of the playing surface during the competition. By providing a playing surface upon which any desired game can be played, particularly an action oriented game, with the playing surface being continuously rotated throughout the play of the game, forces previously unknown to each competitor are continuously imposed on each competitor, effectively rendering each competitor to possess equal capabilities, regardless of their strength, agility, proficiency, or size.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring experimental quantities utilizes a self-contained ink jet impactless timing device including an ink jet head employing a timing circuit to provide a precisely timed ink dot stream. In utilizing the present invention, relative movement is initiated between the ink jet device in indicia receiving medium, generally ticker-tape paper, producing a dot pattern on the indicia receiving medium. The dot pattern, so produced, can be reviewed to obtain the experimental results. The invention can be utilized in various ways to measure the acceleration due to gravity, velocities, momentum, linear acceleration, period of a pendulum, motion of a spring, etc.
