Abstract: Systems and methods applicable, for instance, to using continuous levels of detail (CLODs) in connection with computer graphic models. Distinct levels of detail (LODs) can be generated, floating point LOD (fLOD) values can be calculated, and interpolated LODs can be generated. Further, LOD display can occur.

Abstract: Targets for use in training personnel in the operation of thermal imaging systems are described, the targets include: an internal cavity; an electrically powered heat source; the heat source is arranged to introduce heat to the internal cavity to cause warming of the target to thereby generate a heat signature.

Abstract: A method and system for training a person in the aiming of firearms at moving targets is described, the method including the steps of: providing at least one moving target; calculating the correct lead for the at least one target; displaying a visualisation of the correct lead to the person

Abstract: A target device for use in training armed personnel is described including: a base portion which includes locomotion means for propelling the target around in a training area; a humanoid target is mounted in association with the base portion; the humanoid target adopts a normally upright position and is controllable to move to adopt a range of rotational positions away from the normally upright position in both of a forwards direction and a backwards direction.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a live fire training environment are described, the methods including the steps of: providing a number of moveable targets, the targets being arranged to move across a ground surface; introducing the targets into a live fire training area, the live fire training area having at least one firing position where participants take up position to fire at the targets; and instructing the targets to commence repeated movements in a generally side to side fashion with respect to the at least one firing position.

Abstract: Systems and methods of arranging a firearms training scenario utilising at least one robotic mobile target in a training area are disclosed, the method including the steps of: sending commands to at least one robotic target in a training area to cause the target to operate in the training area; recording operations data representative of the operations carried out by the at least one robotic target; and subsequently conducting a training scenario in the training area wherein the at least one robotic target bases its actions at least partially on the previously recorded operations data.
