Illuminated Bouncing Balls

This product is a pair of illuminated bouncing balls designed for entertainment as a toy. It takes an older idea of linked balls, of rigid material, that were attached to each other and forced to collide under proper manipulation causing occasional damage to those playing with them. It replaces the rigid material with a transparent polymer that has similar properties to those held by rubber that promotes the bouncing action. The link between the balls is provided by two fibre optic cables, which carry a light source, powered by a battery located within hand grip.
