  • Publication number: 20260266578
    Abstract: An airgun is configured to launch a variety of less lethal projectiles such that they are delivered on target with a predetermined amount of impact energy, regardless of range and projectile type. The airgun includes a range finder, an adjustable air mass system, a trigger system, and a controller. The range finder determines a distance to target, and the controller uses the distance to target to determine an energy level for the adjustable air mas system. The airgun includes a temperature sensor and the controller reduces or eliminates the determined energy level as a function of the temperature and the projectile type of the projectile.

    Abstract: An airgun is configured to launch a variety of less lethal projectiles such that they are delivered on target with a predetermined amount of impact energy, regardless of range and projectile type. The airgun includes a range finder, an adjustable air mass system, a trigger system, and a controller. The range finder determines a distance to target, and the controller uses the distance to target to determine an energy level for the adjustable air mas system. The adjustable air mass system provides an air mass corresponding to the energy level to the projectile when prompted by the trigger system. The projectile is launched by the airgun with the provided air mass to deliver the projectile on target with a predetermined amount of energy.
