| 摘要 |
Our invention hybridizes ‘ball sports,’ including soccer, baseball, tennis, and etc., and devices converting mechanical energy (through impact or shaking) to produce power while playing or participating in sports. Modifications include embedding sensors into a ball to identify the degree of kicking or hitting, or utilize them in the context of other computer or AV-based games. The energy-producing ball embeds the coiled-impact sensors and/or shake-to-charge technology, vibration, or other piezo-electric materials to convert the mechanical energy of kicking, hitting, or bouncing into electrical energy. The energy can be stored internally, internally on a removable device, externally, or in some hybrid. The ball can be a source of light, contain housings for light sources or battery-charging adapters, or plugged into other energy-collection/storage units. The stored energy within the ball can be used to charge batteries, power light sources, cell phones, radios, or other electrical products.
