Abstract
A game has at least one radiation emitter for manipulation by a player and a mobile target carrying a sensing means responsive to receive radiation, the target being moved in response to sensed radiation. In one embodiment there are two sensors each responsive to the radiation emitted by an individual radiation emitter controlled by an individual player. In another embodiment, the mobile target normally moves in a circular path and is responsive to sensed radiation to move in a tangential line of travel for a predetermined time. The mobile target may be provided with two sensors which, through control circuitry, cause the target to travel different predetermined distances dependent on which sensor receives radiation.
Claims8
A game for testing the ability of players, which comprises:
- a mobile target;
- means for emitting a narrow beam of radiation, said radiation emitting means comprising a gun emitting a single pair of pulses upon each actuation of a trigger thereof;
- sensing means on said mobile target responsive to said radiation of said emitting means and comprising a radiation detector and a circuit for detecting said emitting pulses, said circuit including gating means for gating a second received pulse under the control of a first received pulse such that said circuit is only responsive to pulses of radiation having a predetermined separation in time;
- drive means on said mobile target for displacing said mobil target;
- and
- control means for controlling said drive means in response to sensed radiation, said control means being set to cause said mobile target to undergo a predetermined change in velocity for a predetermined length of time in response to said sensed radiation.
A game testing the ability of players, which comprises:
- a mobile target;
- means for emitting a narrow beam of radiation;
- sensing means on said mobile target responsive to said radiation of said emitting means;
- drive means on said mobile target for displacing said mobile target, said drive means of said mobile target causing said mobile target to continuously move in a circular path;
- and
- control means for controlling said drive means in response to sensed radiation, said control means being operative on said drive means to cause said mobile target to undergo a predetermined change in velocity for a predetermined time, said change in velocity for a predetermined time taking the form of the mobile target traveling for a predetermined distance in a line tangential to said circular path in response to detection of said sensed radiation, said predetermined distance being determined by said tangential line of travel for said predetermined length of time.
