Individual soldiers carry small laser sensors scattered over their bodies, which detect when the soldier has been illuminated by a firearm's laser. Each laser transmitter is set to mimic the effective range of the weapon on which it is used. When a person is "hit", a medic can use the digital readout to determine which first aid method to practice.
A Tactical Engagement Simulation (TES) is a training system for using weapons. Laser transmitters are typically used instead of bullets, larger rounds, or shorter-range guided weapons such as anti-tank missiles. A laser transmitter is mounted on the weapon and aligned with the weapon's barrel. However, some engagement simulators are capable of ...
Precision-guided small arms prototypes have been developed which use a laser designator to guide an electronically actuated bullet to a target. [8] Another system in development uses a laser range finder to trigger an explosive small arms shell in proximity to a target. As of 2009, the U.S. Army has plans to use such devices in the future.
Short-range antipersonnel less-lethal weapon that uses a laser to cause temporary blindness, skin burns, and pain. In production [66] Northrop Grumman electric laser: Electric laser capable of producing a 100-kilowatt ray of light, with potential to be mounted in aircraft, ship, or vehicle. 2009: Experimental [67] [68] Northrop Grumman laser gun
The Arcadia was a cartridge-based projection light-gun system that allowed for two types of light-guns, the Arcadia Electronic Skeet Shoot Rifle, which was a single-shot only rifle with a pump reload and featured force feedback, a speaker for audio feedback, and a red-dot sight built into the front sight, as well as the Radar Pistol, which had ...
The Laser Clay Shooting System (レーザークレー射撃システム) is a light gun shooting simulation game created by Nintendo in 1973. The game consisted of an overhead projector which displayed moving targets behind a background; players would fire at the targets with a rifle, in which a mechanism of reflections would determine whether or not the "laser shot" from the rifle hit the target.
Simulator Development Division (SDD) was established as a nodal agency for the development of simulators for the Indian Army in the year 1991. [ 2 ] Drona is an electronic and software-based equipment which reduces expenditure on ammunition, logistics and time spent on regular troop training by 40 to 50 per cent.
The emitters are usually lasers, making what is termed a laser dazzler. Most of the contemporary systems can be carried by a person, and operate in either the red (a laser diode) or green (a diode-pumped solid-state laser, DPSS) areas of the electromagnetic spectrum. The green laser is chosen for its unique ability to react with the human eye. [5]
