  • Publication number: 20180258636
    Abstract: Systems for building customizable structures, without tools and without separate mechanical fasteners, as well as methods of use are described. Such structures may comprise at least two separate panels removably attached to a common panel-joiner. Such panels may be substantially planar and structural members. Such panel joiners may be substantially elongate members and structural members. Edges of the panels and complimentary-edges of the panel-joiners may be removably attached to each other by virtue of a plurality of clips running along a given edge and a complimentary plurality of clip-receivers running along the given complimentary-edge of the given panel-joiner. Such erected customizable structures, may then be used in firearm and tactical training. Such erected customizable structures may simulate various building structures, such as, but not limited to, rooms and/or hallways.

  • Patent number: 10048043
    Abstract: Various embodiments of systems for improving shooting performance, as well as, carriers configured for that purpose, are disclosed and described herein. In some such embodiments, such systems may comprise: at least one projector, at least one screen, at least one carrier, and at least one pathway. The at least one projector may project one or more images upon at least some portion of the at least one screen. The at least one screen may receive and display the one or more images. The at least one carrier may house the at least one projector; and in some embodiments, may also house at least one screen mount for removably mounting the at least one screen. The at least one carrier may travel along the at least one pathway. A shooter may aim and shoot a firearm at the one or more images displayed upon the at least one screen.

  • Patent number: 8997363
    Abstract: The system includes a rotation disengagement mechanism configured to disengage a rotatable shaft from a powered drive unit such that upon disengagement the powered drive unit is no longer able to rotate the shaft. After disengagement, the rotatable shaft may reengage the powered drive unit at only one rotational position relative to the rotation disengagement mechanism. A target coupled to the shaft is thus always in a known home position. The systems and methods further comprise smart positioning logic that assigns a number designation to four rotational orientations spaced 90° from one another.
