An electronic agility training system, including an array of multilayer, flexible footfall portions, a microprocessor operationally connected footfall portions, a user interface connected to the microprocessor, a pressure sensor positioned in each respective footfall portion and connected to the microprocessor, and a light source positioned in each respective footfall portion and operationally connected to the microprocessor. The microprocessor is programmed to receive user information and to sequentially light respective footfall portions in one of a plurality of predetermined patterns and speeds. Actuation of the pressure sensor positioned in a lit footfall portion generates a first signal to the microprocessor, while actuation of the pressure sensor positioned in an unlit footfall portion generates a second signal. Likewise, a null activation of the pressure sensor positioned in a lit footfall portion generates a second signal to the microprocessor. The microprocessor counts the respective first and second signal received and generates a score based thereupon.

An assembly for providing illumination to an automobile wheel having an at least partially transparent wheel covering. The assembly includes a bracket nondestructively secured to a non-rotating portion of an automobile wheel, a light emitting array connected to the bracket, and a power source electrically connected to the light emitting array. The light emitting array is positioned to intermittently shine light through the at least partially transparent wheel covering. The bracket is adjustably positionable relative the non-rotating portion of the wheel.

Automobile wheel lighting system

An assembly for providing illumination to an automobile wheel having an at least partially transparent wheel covering. The assembly includes a bracket for securing to the a non-rotating portion of an automobile wheel and a light emitting diode or diode array operationally connected to the bracket. A rechargeable battery is electrically connected to the light emitting diode and the light emitting diode, when energized, shines light through the at least partially transparent wheel covering when the wheel covering is rotating.

The instrument includes a cartridge carousel assembly which receives analytical cartridges. The cartridges are self-contained units which incorporate a sample metering/separation system which is operated by centrifugal force. The cartridge carousel is composed of a cartridge rotor plate which includes a center and a plurality of cartridge ports which are located in spaced relation radially outward from the center of the plate. The cartridge ports include a cartridge dock which is shaped to receive the cartridges and a balance weight dock which is located radially inward from the cartridge dock. The cartridge dock is shaped to receive a balance weight. A locking mechanism is provided which holds the cartridge in the cartridge dock during rotation of the cartridge rotor plate. A balancing mechanism is provided which includes a balance weight which is movable to the balance weight dock when a cartridge is inserted into the cartridge dock. An ejection mechanism is provided which ejects the test cartridge from the cartridge port after processing of the test cartridge is completed.

An optical system for measuring the reflectance of flat strips having potentially optically non-uniform surfaces. In one embodiment the systems includes an array of discrete light sources, wherein each light source is driven by its own individual current, such that the pattern reflected onto a photodector is substantially uniform in intensity.

An analytical cartridge adapted for use in analyzing fluids for spectrophotometry. The cartridge includes a plumbing system composed of the cuvette and various wells or chambers which are interconnected by passageways. After introduction into the cartridge, liquid samples are separated (if necessary) and transported to a cuvette utilizing a sequential application of centrifugal force followed by pressurization of the system. The cartridge may be used in a wide variety of spectrophotometric procedures to measure the concentration of a wide variety of constituents in fluids, including bodily fluids which contain liquid and solid components.

The leg stilt device of the invention permits the user to safely adjust the height of the stilt while thereon and is stable, holding the user in a level safe position. The device includes one or more pairs of hollow tubular telescoping vertical support members, a horizontal platform secured to the upper end of the uppermost-extending such member, a broad flat horizontal base connected to the lower end of the lowermost extending vertical member of each pair and providing the desired stability, a tubular leg brace connected to and extending above the platform, and a stilt height adjusting mechanism releasably coupling the two vertical members together. The adjusting mechanism includes a biasing spring, shoe strap or the like, for urging the platform vertically, a pin releasably disposable horizontally through aligned horizontal openings in the vertical members and a pin mover including a pin biaser urging the pin into a position locking the vertical members together, and a pin retractor for removing the pin from the locked position. The retractor is controlled manually or electrically by the user by means of a pull cord or switch in the leg brace. The pin and pin mover are concealed in the device and protected from damage. A pair of the devices provide improved stability and ease of use, are simple, durable and effective.
