Computerized Yo-Yo
First Claim
1. A computerized yo-yo, the computerized yo-yo comprising:
- a yo-yo body comprised of a first rounded half and a second rounded half;
a latching base formed as a recessed space into at least one of the first rounded half and the second rounded half of the yo-yo body;
a held detachable device wherein the held detachable device is at least one type from a plurality of types of detachable devices and wherein the held detachable device is held by the latching base;
an accelerometers device configured to measure acceleration values of the computerized yo-yo;

Abstract
There described a computerized yo-yo toy that uses an acceleration measuring device, a computation and control device, a communication device and entertaining devices to enhance the entertaining experience of playing with the computerized yo-yo toy. The acceleration measuring device measures the acceleration values of the computerized yo-yo toy. The computation and control device uses the measured acceleration values to generate control signals to control the entertaining devices such as a light display device, an audio play device and an auxiliary device for an enhanced entertaining experience. The entertaining devices may be latched to a latching base, which allows using different and new entertaining devices with the computerized yo-yo toy. The computation and control device may also use the measured acceleration values to generate control signals to control the motion of the computerized yo-yo toy, using an electric clutch device and an electric motor device. The control signals are based on the measured acceleration values, the type of entertaining device latched to the latching base and setup parameters received by the communication device from an external device, such as smartphone or tablet. The communication deice may also send data from the computerized yo-yo toy to the external device, which allows the external device to analyze, store or display the data for an enhanced entertaining experience.
