  • Patent number: 9791243
    Abstract: A weapon effect simulation system including a fire simulation system and at least one hit simulation system. The fire simulation system includes a transmitter for transmitting electromagnetic waves to simulate real ammunition from a weapon and elements for including information in the electromagnetic waves. The hit simulation system includes both a receiver for receiving the transmitted electromagnetic waves and a processor for determining, based on received electromagnetic waves, whether a target has been hit. The fire simulation system further includes a calculator for calculating the imagined trajectory of the simulated ammunition and a processor for determining the geographical position of the weapon, and wherein the elements for including information in the electromagnetic waves are arranged so as to include information related to coordinates in the three-dimensional space for the calculated ammunition trajectory.

  • Patent number: 9057582
    Abstract: A simulation system for use in military exercise of combat in an area having at least one building has a transmitter arranged on a firearm for simulating firing of a shot and a detector to be arranged on the body of a soldier. Sensors are adapted to sense whether the transmitter and the detector are located indoors or outdoors. The detector is designed to discriminate between normal power signals fired from outdoors and indoors, whereas the transmitters is adapted to emit signals of normal power when located outdoors and signal of normal power as well as a substantially lower power when located indoors.

  • Publication number: 20070020585
    Abstract: A simulation system for use in military exercise of combat in an area having at least one building has a transmitter arranged on a firearm for simulating firing of a shot and a detecting means to be arranged on the body of a soldier. Sensors are adapted to sense whether said transmitter and said detecting means are located indoors or outdoors. The detecting means is designed to discriminate between normal power signals fired from outdoors and indoors, whereas the transmitter is adapted to emit signals of normal power when located outdoors and signal of normal power as well as a substantially lower power when located indoors.
