Information-presentation structure with cell arrangement for impact-sensing color change

An information-presentation (“IP”) structure comprising:

• an object-impact (“OI”) structure having an exposed surface for being impacted by an object during an activity, the OI structure comprising a variable-color (“VC”) region which extends to the exposed surface at a surface zone, the VC region comprising a multiplicity of VC cells arranged laterally in a layer, each cell extending to a part of the surface zone, the cells normally appearing along their parts of the surface zone largely as a principal color during the activity, each cell that meets cellular threshold impact criteria in response to the object impacting the surface zone at an impact-dependent (“ID”) object-contact (“OC”) area spanning where the object contacts the surface zone temporarily becoming a threshold criteria-meeting (“CM”) cell, each threshold CM cell providing a cellular characteristics-identifying impact signal that identifies cellular supplemental impact information for the object impacting the OC area as experienced at that threshold CM cell;
• and
• a color-change (“CC”) controller responsive to the impact signal of each threshold CM cell for combining the cellular supplemental impact information of that threshold CM cell with the cellular supplemental impact information of any other threshold CM cell to form general supplemental impact information, for deter mining whether the general supplemental impact information meets supplemental impact criteria, and, if so, for providing a cellular CC initiation signal to each threshold CM cell so as to cause it to temporarily become a full CM cell and temporarily appear along its part of the surface zone largely as changed color materially different from the principal color, the parts of the surface zone of the full CM cells constituting an ID print area of the surface zone, the print area at least partly encompassing, at least mostly outwardly conforming largely to, and being largely concentric with the OC area.
