Pop sensor system and device for revealing a winner
A pop sensor and device for revealing a winner for use in battle or sword-type games with at least two players. A device for revealing a winner comprises a bladder, a pop mechanism, a pop mechanism support structure, and a bladder destruction apparatus. The device for revealing a winner is coupled to a pop sensor system comprising a pop sensor that is worn on the player's body. Activating the pop sensor causes the player's pop mechanism to activate and cause the bladder to pop, instantly disengaging the losing player while revealing the winning player.
1. A device for use in a sword gameplay, the device comprising:
a pop mechanism support structure having an inner surface defining a cavity,
a pop mechanism connected to the inner surface of the pop mechanism support structure,
a bladder destruction apparatus coupled to the pop mechanism, and
a bladder for indicating a win or loss of the sword gameplay,
wherein the bladder is frictionally fit within the cavity of the pop mechanism support structure at a position above a first end of the bladder but below a midpoint of a length of the bladder to form a sword for use in the sword gameplay such that activation of the pop mechanism causes the bladder destruction apparatus to destroy the bladder to designate the loss and renders the bladder incapable of further use in the sword gameplay.
2. A method of indicating a loss in a sword gameplay using a device comprising:
a pop mechanism support structure having an inner face defining a cavity,
a pop mechanism connected to the inner surface of the pop mechanism support structure,
a bladder destruction apparatus coupled to the pop mechanism, and
a bladder,
the method steps comprising:
securing by friction fit the bladder within the cavity of the pop mechanism support structure at a position above a first end of the bladder but below a midpoint of a length of the bladder to form a sword for use in the sword gameplay,
fastening a pop sensor system for use with the device to a harness, belt, vest, item of clothing, accessory, or combinations thereof,
initiating the pop sensor system,
initiating the pop mechanism on the pop mechanism support structure in response to the initiating of the pop sensor system to cause the bladder destruction apparatus to destroy the bladder to indicate the loss and render the bladder incapable of further use in the sword gameplay.
3. A method of revealing a winning player and disengaging a losing player in a battle game, the method steps comprising:
providing to each of two or more players a device comprising:
a pop mechanism support structure having an inner surface defining a cavity,
a pop mechanism connected to the inner surface of the pop mechanism support structure,
a bladder destruction apparatus coupled to the pop mechanism,
a bladder, and
a pop sensor system having a pop sensor,
wherein the bladder is frictionally fit within the cavity of the pop mechanism support structure at a position above a first end of the bladder but below a midpoint of a length of the bladder to form a sward for use in the battle game,
striking by a first player the pop sensor of a second player by the application of pressure to the pop sensor to activate the pop sensor to transmit data to a logic circuit, causing the logic circuit to process said data and transmit said processed data to the pop mechanism of the second player,
activating they pop mechanism of the second player,
activating the bladder destruction apparatus of the pop mechanism of the second player causing the bladder destruction apparatus to pierce, contact, puncture, or rub the bladder of the second player,
destroying the bladder of the second player,
designating the second player as a losing player and disengaging the losing plater from the battle game since the destroyed bladder renders the bladder incapable of further use in the battle game, and
revealing the first player having a device with the bladder still intact as the winning player.
