Abstract: A device to capture pressure data from a weapon's handgrip and trigger during live fire, the device comprising a shell that fits around the handgrip, a network of pressure sensors disposed within the shell such that when the shell is on the handgrip and pressure is applied to the handgrip, the network of pressure sensors is able to record the pressure applied to all sides of the handgrip, and a communication assembly that allows data communication between the network of sensors and a computer.

Abstract: A device to capture pressure data from a weapon's foregrip during live fire, the weapon having a Picatinny accessory rail, the device comprising a plurality of sensor bodies that are mountable to the Picatinny accessory rail, each sensor body having a pressure sensitive region that can capture pressure data placed on the pressure sensitive region, each sensor body having channels that correspond to the Picatinny accessory rail, retention latch system that attaches the sensor body to the weapon; and, a communication assembly that allows data communication between the plurality of sensor bodies and a computer.

Abstract: A device to capture data and video through a weapon's iron sight during live fire, wherein the iron sight has a rear aperture assembly and is able to adjust iron sight elevation. The device includes a beam splitter assembly, a camera, and camera body with a printed circuit board assembly with sensors and a controller, image sensor, device controller and an adjustment arm. The adjustment arm is mountable on the side of the iron sight assembly such that the camera body can be adjusted to the weapon line of sight in a horizontal/windage direction. The beamsplitter assembly splits the light and images to the image sensor and to the shooter's eye without disrupting the shooter's view of a target. The image sensor captures video of the image sent from the beamsplitter assembly. The device controller collects data from all the sensors and sends the data and video to a computer.

Abstract: A normobaric hypoxia trainer including a training chamber, an intake fan for allowing ground level air to be introduced into the training chamber; an exhaust fan for removing air from the training chamber; a plurality of circulation fans for mixing interior air of the training chamber to create a uniform oxygen concentration within the training chamber; a nitrogen generation system, the nitrogen generating system including a plurality of polysulphone membrane cartridges for separating out nitrogen from air; a compressor for supplying compressed air to the nitrogen generation system; a pressure regulator for regulating the pressure of the compressed air; a heater for controlling temperature of the compressed air, the heated pressure regulated compressed air passing through the polysulphone membrane cartridges such that nitrogen can be separated out from the air; and, a flow controller for controlling flow rate of the separated nitrogen into the training chamber.

Abstract: Disclosed is a modular advanced technology -marksmanship proficiency (MAT-MP) system. The MAT-MP system provides marksmanship instructors with a robust and reconfigurable set of technological tools to quickly diagnose and remediate deficiencies in marksmanship skill at a live-fire range. The system diagnoses the shooter's performance using an array of sensors and an optic camera, all placed on the shooter's weapon, to continuously monitor and record his/her performance during weapon fire. Data output by the sensors and optic camera is gathered by the MAT-MP system's weapon-mounted control device and sent wirelessly to an instructor station, typically a tablet, laptop computer or the like. The MAT-MP coach software running on the instructor's computer presents a summarized analysis of the shooter's performance as well as provides the instructor the ability to view the raw sensor data graphically.

Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to an infrared weapon aimpoint and triggering detection system that includes an IRED that is modulated in two modes for training and evaluating first responders who are required to enter buildings and raid houses. The IRED mode is either an aiming mode or a triggered mode. The triggered mode is initiated for a short period when the weapon is fired as sensed by a recoil sensing mechanism. An IRED detector and controller sense and process the signal, and may provide output to an instructor, evaluator or a target controller to control the behavior of a target.

Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to determining aimpoint relative to a target located within a firing range. The target can be either fixed or moving, and if the target is moving then it can be mounted on tracks or controlled by servomechanisms. In addition to aimpoint, predicted projectile effects and personnel performance can be calculated for evaluation and for training. The firing range is mapped so that placement of infrared emitters is associated with specific targets. Placement of the emitter external to the target perimeter produces accurate results so long as the emitter is within the field of view of a camera mounted upon the projectile launcher. The invention results in large firing ranges with the ability to place targets wherever desired without decreasing aimpoint measurement accuracy.
