Abstract: Systems and methods for electronic ticketing, monitoring, and indicating permissive use of facilities for family entertainment centers that implement connected terminal devices or kiosks, wireless communication networks, and a plurality of electronic wearable devices. Customers perform transactions with or without a facility employee, using the wearable device as a means of identifying the patron within the facility in addition to verifying the validity of said transactions. Systems and methods provide real-time status information regarding patrons via visual indicators embedded within wearable devices, gamification of facility attractions through an embedded motion-tracking component embedded in the wearable device, and alerts that provide facility employees with activity and/or status information about patrons.

Abstract: A method and system for capturing, organizing, storing, and analyzing manufacturing process information, with storage and performance characteristics suitable for use in resource-constrained embedded devices. Process information is organized into extensible Channels, each of which captures information stored as extensible Events, each of which may include Metric, Category Value, Annotation, and System Fields. Shared Boundaries between Channels make it easier to organize, store, interrelate, analyze, and explore information. Channel Boundary Relationships (e.g., Coupling, Fragmenting, Projecting, and Aggregating) create shared Boundaries; and can create, or be combined to create, sets of Channels that share Boundaries (referred to as a Slice Set).

Abstract: The invention is a wakeboard training device utilizing a trampoline for the jumping surface and a tow rope structure for the control for the rider. The jumping surface can be inclined to improve simulating wave support and the trampoline improves safety and training efficiency. A training park would include connecting four of these devices together to form a quadrangle shape to maximize room efficiency so that multiple riders can train safely in a room. It would also allow one rider to perform 360 degree tricks about the pivot center of the device.

Abstract: The invention is a system for trampoline park framing, distribution, and assembly. The trampoline parking framing system includes frame sections, coupling plates, supports, springs, material, and all the nuts and bolts needed for assembly. The invention can be designed, built, shipped, and assembled without the need to send over a support team. The frame levels itself with the tightening of the plates and the supports are adjustable to conform to uneven floor levels. The frame includes additional accessories to secure the springs to the frame sections in order to increase security of the apparatus. Also included can be safety pads or mats to cover the frame sections and the springs to reduce risk of serious injury.

Abstract: The invention is a jogging trampoline apparatus that is one consistent path on a trampoline that forms an outer boundary of an empty enclosure allowing an individual to run in a consistent path. The jogging trampoline apparatus forms a track where the runner can jog complete loops. The jogging trampoline apparatus has an inner frame that is encompassed by an outer frame where a material substantially covers the area between the frames coupled by elastic elements. The trampoline is several jumping surfaces connected without the use of additional cross frame sections allowing the apparatus to maintain a consistent bounce throughout the entire jumping surface and minimize injury risk.

Abstract: The invention is a multiple surface trampoline where at least one surface is at an angle incline and one jumping material covers multiple surfaces continuously. The trampoline has a cross section wherever two surfaces at differing angles intersect and that cross section has tension supports that secure the cross section to a support cross bar. The tension supports eliminate the no bounce effect that occurs with prior art, which in turn reduces the risk of injury to persons who use the trampolines.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dyeing inherently flame resistant fibers, and particularly aramid fibers, without the use of accelerants or carriers. Fabrics made from aramid fibers or blends thereof are immersed in an aqueous dye bath that includes at least one dye and at least one acid component. The temperature of the dye bath is increased from room temperature to a suitable temperature (e.g., between approximately 285° F. to 400° F.) capable of rendering the aramid fibers less crystalline so that the fibers can accept the dye. In this way, suitable color yields may be obtained without the use of accelerants or carriers as have been required in the past.
