Abstract

Arrayed across the climbing wall (1) are a series of hand/foot holds (11) of clear plastics material and having an external shape providing a recessed grip (12) on its front surface (14). The hold is held to the wall by a bolt (15) passing through the body of the hold via a thorough bore (16). This arrangement allows the hold to be set at a randomly chosen angle, that is with the grip facing up or to left or right. Provided in the rear surface (17) of the hold is an annular recess (18), centred on the thorough bore. Radially outwards of the annular recess, the rear face of the hold is covered with aluminium foil (19), which abuts the wall (1) with the bolt (15) tightened. Accommodated in the annular recess is an annular circuit board (21) carrying a circuit including a connector (22), a set of bicolour LEDs (23) and a capacitative proximity sensor (24). The circuit is illuminates the LEDs green or red under control of a remote computer (25). Since the circuit board is circularly symmetrical, it does not restrict the hold from taking any angle despite the annular circuit board being restricted in its angular disposition by the connector (22). The LEDs and indeed the entire circuit are set in clear potting material complementary to the annular recess, whereby their illumination is visible at the front surface of the hold. A lead (30) extends from the circuit board, where it is connected to the capacitative sensor. The lead carries a wrapping (31) of aluminium foil for making contact with the foil (19), whereby the circuit can detect a hand using the grip (12).
