A flooring system configured to accommodate sports play and other activities, wherein the flooring system comprises a support base having a synthetic component, such as a synthetic support structure, wherein the support base is configured to provide a support surface for receiving and supporting a flooring configuration. The lid has three main openings, one for the entrance of debris and two for the outlet of air as well as holes to attach the various elements to the lid with cable ties. For example, a CMOS color image sensing array with pixels in an RGB Bayer pattern can include, for each column, a variable capacitance component with parallel switchable capacitors for signal sampling and readout sampling. The location of each receptacle to which an RFID tag is attached may be associated with the unique identifier of the RFID tag. The spherical bearing is secured in the cavity by swaging the walls of the piston and subsequently working the wall to provide a clearance to allow relative rotation. The first and second batteries are disposed in a battery slot of the casing.
