Abstract: A shooting range target assembly and a method for moving and positioning the target in a controlled manner are disclosed. The assembly includes a conveyor line containing a carriage, a drive, a target assembly, a turning and positioning mechanism and a programmable logic for setting and controlling the movement of the carriage. Controlling the movement, positioning of the target and maintaining target position are accomplished by properly balancing a torque force applied onto a pulley wheel, a drag force applied by a detent assembly and a force applied by a brake. The assembly is configured for moving the target along the conveyor and turning it such that the front side, the back side or an edge faces the shooter.

Abstract: A narrow band light source is combined with a narrow band filter on the face of a traffic light to reduce the problem of sun glare reflected from one traffic light, reducing intensity of the sunlight glare while light from the narrow band source passes through the filter essentially unattenuated, allowing system efficiency to remain high.
