Computer programmable interactive toy for a shooting game

A modular toy for a shooting game comprising:

• a wave energy projector comprising a wave energy source which projects wave energy from said projector;
• a first circuit permanently coupled to said energy source and which controlling operation of said energy source;
• one or more housings in which said first circuit and said wave energy source are mounted;
• a circuit module removably coupled in one of said housings to said first circuit, said circuit module when coupled to said first circuit altering operation of said energy source as compared to operation of said energy source by said first circuit when said module is not coupled to said first circuit.

A modular toy for a shooting game comprising:

• a wave energy sensor which detects wave energy with predetermined characteristics impinging thereon and provides corresponding output signals;
• a first circuit permanently coupled to said wave energy sensor to receive said output signals and process said output signals;
• one or more housings in which said first circuit and said wave energy sensor are mounted;
• a circuit module removably coupled in one of said housings to said first circuit, said circuit module when coupled to said first circuit altering processing of said output signals as compared to processing by said first circuit when said module is not coupled to said first circuit.

A toy for a shooting game having a plurality of player sets, each comprising:

• a wave energy projector comprising a wave energy source which projects wave energy from said projector in response to an input signal;
• a wave energy sensor providing signals responsive to wave energy received by said sensor emitted by another energy projector having another energy source compatible with said energy source;
• a transmission circuit which energizes said energy source;
• a programmable controller which causes said transmission circuit to energize said energy source according to a given code which is different for each player set or teams of player sets, processes said signals provided by said energy sensor, makes a determination that a hit has occurred when energy received by said energy sensor has been emitted by an energy source of another player set of said plurality of player sets and detects the code of the energy received from another player set;
• and
• a programmable device removably couplable to a player set for programming the programmable controller thereof to cause said transmission circuit to energize said energy source according to a given code.
