| 20110183780 | Golf Swing Data Gathering Method And System - A method and system for capturing, transmitting, and displaying golf swing data uses data capture elements in golf balls or golf clubs to capture data and transmission elements to transmit the golf swing data to a mobile computing auxiliary device. The mobile computing auxiliary device relays the captured and transmitted golf swing data to a mobile computing device. The mobile computing device transmits the golf swing data to a database. A server associated with the database generates web pages to make the golf swing data available over the internet. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110319191 | Golf Ball With Precompressed Medial Layer - A golf ball is made from a plurality of layers. A core is formed of a soft material. A medial layer surrounds the core and is formed of a precompressed rubber. A cover surrounds the medial layer. A compression layer may be used to precompress the medial layer. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110319197 | Golf Ball with Hydrophilic Coating Layer - This disclosure provides a golf ball having a coating layer made from a hydrophilic water-swellable material. The hydrophilic water-swellable material undergoes a physical change from a dry state to a wet state upon exposure to water. The wet state may be associated with shallower dimple depths, and the coating layer being softer, than the dry state. The use of such a coating layer may allow the golf ball to compensate for the negative effects of wet weather conditions. Also provided is a method of manufacturing a golf ball. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20120024731 | Open Packaging - A packaging for at least one ball includes at least one opening that is configured to expose a portion of the ball. The openings are configured to restrict movement of the ball by engaging a surface of the ball. This packaging reduces the amount of the packaging material needed to produce the packaging while maximizing the amount of shelf space needed to display the packaging to increase visibility of the packaging. | 02-02-2012 |

| 20090140043 | Portable memory module with wireless emitter to facilitate the provision of location-dependent services - A portable memory module, which comprises an interface allowing the module to be connected to and disconnected from an electronic device by a user of the module such that the electronic device is in close physical proximity to the module when connected thereto; memory storing an identifier of the module; an emitter; and a processing entity configured to encode the identifier of the module into a signal that is transmitted via the emitter as a wireless beacon. The memory contains information that allows the module to be identified by an entity connected to the electronic device. The wireless beacon is configured to enable a location of the module to be determined by a detection sub-system. When the module is connected to the electronic device and the identity of the module is transmitted to a network entity via the electronic device, the location of the module can be used by the network entity to establish the location of the electronic device. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090140851 | Systems and methods for facilitating a first response mission at an incident scene using patient monitoring - Systems and methods for facilitating a first response mission at an incident scene, such as an accident site, a natural or human-made disaster site, or any other first response site.
