Abstract:

An interactive gaming device capable of perceiving user movement includes a controller connected to a display for providing user interaction with a game being played on the gaming device. A light emitter and a light detector input may include multiple light emitters and a single light detector for detecting light, with light detectors positioned in proximity to light emitters for detecting light. In each form, the controller polls the light detectors to see if user or game piece presence about that light emitter has caused the light emitted from the game piece to reflect to the polled light detector. If light has been reflected to the light detector, the controller is notified to determine where the user is and where the user has moved.

Abstract:

A foot scrubber device and method comprises a scrubbing base having two exposed surfaces. Each exposed surface has at least one attachment means disposed along each outer longitudinal edge and covers substantially the entire edge perimeter therein. A hook and loop strap is adjustably attached to the attachment means to secure a user's foot therein. In another embodiment two or more hook and loop straps are used to secure the user's foot. In another embodiment, at least one attachment means is disposed along an outer edge that covers less than an entire edge perimeter therein. In a method of use, the user straps on one or more of the foot scrubbers, applies a cleaning product if desired and then moves their feet in a pattern effective for cleaning a surface such as a bathtub or shower stall.
