Abstract: An authorization management system for personal use of a weapon includes a receiving module coupled to the weapon and a transmitting module configured to be worn by a user in proximity to a body of the user. The transmitting module is located in proximity to the ground. The transmitting module is configured to transmit a signal representing at least an identification code data associated to the user via a signal path through a user's body. The receiving module is configured to receive the signal and actuate a safety system of the weapon for allowing the user a usage of the weapon based on the received signal.

Abstract: A safety system for an object having a transmitter that comprises a microcontroller to generate an identification signal having a given frequency and a resonant circuit to amplify the signal. The transmitter is suitable to be placed in the vicinity of the body of a person to capacitively couple the identification signal to it. The safety system also comprises a receiver suitable to be capacitively coupled to the body in order to receive the first identification signal and to recognize based on the identification signal if a user is an authorized user. The safety system estimates the actual resonant frequency of the resonant circuit when the circuit is amplifying the signal and the microcontroller is adapted to choose as frequency for the identification signal the closest frequency to the estimated actual resonant circuit it can generate so that the amplification of the identification signal is maximized.

Abstract: A reliable and robust electromechanical safety device maximises the security of a weapon by preventing accidental firing situations. The safety device includes a safety element for connecting or disconnecting a kinematic shooting chain; the safety element is arrangeable inside the weapon at its rear part, connecting with the trigger bar and the backstrap of the weapon. Therefore, by controlling the position of the trigger bar, it is possible to control the safe and firing position of the weapon, in addition to, and independent of, the other original weapon safeties.

Abstract: A system for providing information about presence in a space includes a movement sensor for generating a signal upon detecting movement; and a presence sensor for generating a signal upon detecting presence, being a temperature-based matrix sensor having an array of sensing elements. The system further includes a processing and/or control component in communication with the movement and presence sensors, configured to generate a presence signal upon receiving the first and/or second signals; and configured to obtain background information of the presence detection field. The information includes reference temperature values and are obtained upon the movement sensor not detecting movement and/or the presence sensor detecting presence. For each sensing element with presence, using the measured temperature value of surrounding sensing elements not having presence.

Abstract: A weapon safety system with a target and a weapon with an automated lock. Each target is associated with an emitter which transmits a clearance signal that encodes an identifier. The encoded identifier may release the automated lock when received by a receiver attached to the weapon. In order to restrict the positions and orientations from which the weapon can fire to those surrounding the desired targets, shooting is enabled and the automated lock is released, when the following conditions are met: the clearance signal is received by the receiver, so that the receiver is within a first enablement area generated by a first aperture in the emitter; a measured optical power is above a predefined threshold; and the encoded identifier is validated.

Abstract: A trigger (100) for a weapon, the weapon comprising a sear disconnected from the trigger, the trigger (100) comprises a lever (110) mechanically coupled by one end to the trigger (100), the lever (110) comprising a contact surface (110a) that causes rotation of the sear, a carrier (120), an actuator (130) that actuates the carrier (120), a first magnetic element (140) established on the lever (110) and a second magnetic element (142) established on the carrier (120), wherein at least the first magnetic element (140) or the second magnetic element (142) is a magnet or an electromagnet, wherein the trigger (100) comprises a firing state and a safe state.

Abstract: Firearm stock of the type which comprise an electronic control unit in said stock and comprising a receptacle with at least one opening in the stock comb and which is configured to receive a display device. It also comprises a battery configured to be connected to the display device and a control unit configured to receive data from the electronic control unit and send it to the display device. When the display device is installed it is housed in the receptacle and the user has visual access to it by the opening of the comb so that he has access to all the firearm information in his own line of sight when he is aiming. Furthermore, the stock is equally valid for left and right-handed people.

Abstract: Communication method and system for bidirectional data transfer among smart modules (101-111) attachable to a weapon (100), where messages are encoded by modulating an electric supply provided by at least one powered rail (200, 200?, 200?, 200??). At least two priority levels are defined among smart modules supplied by the powered rail (200, 200?, 200?, 200??). High-priority smart modules (600) are allowed to transmit high-priority data message (741) directly; whereas low-priority smart modules (500) are required to transmit a data transfer request message (723) and wait for a data transfer permission message (731), which is only sent when no high-priority data message (741) is being received.
