Abstract

A target device (1) has a target disc (2), with a printed circuit board (3) mounted centrally behind a transparent cover (4), rigidly connected to the target disc. The board incorporates control circuitry and an LED display (5), to display the status of the target. The disc and cover together are mounted via a resilient mounting (6) of elastomeric foam on base board (7), configured as a peripheral, lower scoring, secondary target. The base board itself is mounted on a wall (8) by a base mounting (9) the same as the mounting (6). Impact sensors (11,12,13), typically piezoelectric accelerometers, are respectively mounted on the target disc (2), the base board (7) and the wall. In use a player throws a ball at the target, and if the ball strikes the target disc, its sensor (11) will register a larger response than the other two sensors, whose response will be muted be the mountings. If the ball strikes the base board, sensor (12) will register the largest signal. If it strikes the wall or indeed if the player collides with the wall, the sensor (13) will register the largest signal. The target then sends to a scoring unit (21) a signal identifying the sort of strike detected.
