  • Remote detection of gun projectiles
    Patent number: 10060712
    Abstract: A sensor system is provided for monitoring anti-personnel effectiveness of a gun that fires a projectile against a mannequin target. The system includes an instrumentation sensor, an aggregation controller and a base station. The instrumentation sensor is disposed on the target. The sensor transmits a status condition based on electrical integrity. The status condition is either intact as default or else disablement in response to impact from the projectile. The aggregation controller receives the status condition from the sensor and transmits the status information as aggregated information. The base station receives the aggregated information for analysis to determine the effectiveness in response to the gun firing at the target.
    Type: Grant
