Abstract: A system for and method of use of an augmented reality display is provided. The preferred system is implemented by one or more tactical units calculating a target path from a weapon position and a range. A lead is calculated. A phantom target is displayed at the lead. A virtual laser and virtual tracer are provided to assist in target tracking. A spotter unit is also provided to supplement target path and range data. A neural network is provided to learn from tracking and successful lead data and to predict lead in the tactical theatre.

Abstract: A system and method for simulating lead of a target includes a network, a simulation administrator and a user device connected to the network, a database connected to the simulation administrator, and a set of position trackers positioned at a simulator site. The user device includes a virtual or augmented reality unit and a computer connected to the network. A target may be simulated or may be a real-world object. The target and the user are tracked to generate a phantom target and a phantom halo. The phantom target and the phantom halo are displayed on the virtual or augmented reality unit at a lead distance and a drop distance from the target.
