A system for identifying targets wherein a projectile includes one or more sensors that gather sensor data about the environment and send the gathered data to a computing device. The computing device identifies the target by comparing the gathered sensor data to digital sensor signatures known to correspond to different types of objects. The system is also capable of identifying changes in a status of a target based on a change in the sensor data.

An animal trap includes an outer member, an inner member, a resilient member, a bottom portion, and a trigger. The outer member has a first lower end and a first upper end, and defines a first cavity. The inner member has a second lower end and a second upper end, and defines a second cavity. At least a portion of the inner member is positioned within the first cavity of the outer member. The inner member is slidably repositionable relative to the outer member between a cocked position and a deployed position. The resilient member is positioned to bias the inner member into the deployed position. The bottom portion is coupled to the first lower end of the outer member. At least one of the bottom portion and the first lower end of the outer member define a passage. The trigger assembly is positioned to selectively hold the inner member in the cocked position.

This document describes techniques and devices capable of disabling or killing hard-bodied insects, including wasps and hornets, to two, three, or even four or more feet. In some cases, the techniques and devices use an existing pressurized-air device, such as a CO2-powered rifle or pistol, either intended for BBs or pellets, in .177, .20, .22, .25 and so forth calibers. Other pressurized-air devices can also be used, such a PCP (pre-charged pneumatic), spring, gas piston, single and multi-pump pneumatic, electric-motor-powered spring-piston, and similar pressurized-air devices.

Described herein is a mobile apparatus for capturing images that includes a body, a propulsion device coupled to the body and actuatable to propel the body in response to a motion control command. The mobile apparatus also includes a low-resolution camera coupled to the body and configured to capture a plurality of low-resolution images. Further, the mobile apparatus includes a transceiver coupled to the body. The transceiver is configured to wirelessly receive the motion control command and wirelessly transmit the plurality of low-resolution images.

An animal trap, according to one embodiment, includes: a first portion having upper and a lower ends; a second portion in sliding relationship with the first portion, the first and second portions being relatively positionable between cocked and deployed positions; a biasing mechanism for biasing the first and second portions towards the deployed position; a trigger mechanism for selectively locking the first and second portions in the cocked position; and an end unit removably coupled to the lower end of the first portion. The end unit includes: a base; at least two unique members extending from a bottom end of the base; and a bottom portion coupled to a distal end of each of the unique members. A first end of each of the unique members is coupled to the base, while each of the distal ends are at a second end of each of the unique members.

A hunting and fishing gear includes a haft (1), a harpoon body (2) extending in a longitudinal direction of the haft (1) from one end of the haft (1), and a plurality of harpoon tips (3) extending in a lateral direction Y from one side portion of the harpoon body (2) in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction X of the harpoon body (2), and a barb (5) or a come-off prevention section (11; 12) provided to protrude into a space part (4) from at least one of the harpoon tips (3) located in the space part (4). Therefore, when a person grips a handle (7) with the person's hand (17) to use the hunting and fishing gear by swinging it in the direction of an arrow Z, the plurality of harpoon tips easily pierce a prey.
