WEAPON USAGE MONITORING SYSTEM HAVING PERFORMANCE METRICS AND FEEDBACK RECOMMENDATIONS BASED ON DISCHARGE EVENT DETECTION
A system and method for recommending a corrective action based on a performance metric related to a discharge event of a firearm is provided. The method includes receiving, by a first event detection module associated with a first firearm, a plurality of first input signals over a sample window of time from a first inertial measurement unit configured on the first firearm; identifying, by the first event detection module, an occurrence of a first shot discharge of the first firearm at a shot time based on the plurality of first input signals; determining a first orientation of the first firearm at the shot time; determining a second orientation of the first firearm at a first time before the shot time; comparing the first and second orientations; determining a first performance metric related to pre-shot weapon orientation; and displaying a first recommended corrective action based on the first performance metric.
WEAPON USAGE MONITORING SYSTEM HAVING SHOT COUNT MONITORING AND SAFETY SELECTOR SWITCH
A method providing discharge monitoring of a firearm includes a signal processing module and a safety selector switch sensor. The event detection module has at least one sensor that senses an acceleration and generates an acceleration signal. The signal processing module receives the acceleration signal and is configured to determine whether the acceleration signal is a discharge event and generate an event detection signal based on the determination, the signal processing module further configured to maintain a shot count of the firearm based on the determination that the event detection signal is a discharge event. The safety selector switch sensor communicates with a safety switch configured on the firearm, and communicates a safety switch signal to the signal processing module corresponding to a position of the safety switch. The event detection signal is further based on the safety switch signal.
WEAPON USAGE MONITORING SYSTEM HAVING SHOT COUNT MONITORING AND TRIGGER PULL SENSOR
A system for providing discharge monitoring of a firearm includes an event detection module, a signal processing module and a trigger pull sensor assembly. The event detection module has at least one sensor that senses an acceleration and generates an acceleration signal. The signal processing module receives the acceleration signal. The signal processing module is configured to determine whether the acceleration signal is a discharge event and generate an event detection signal based on the determination and is configured to maintain a shot count of the firearm based on the determination that the event detection signal is a discharge event. The trigger pull sensor assembly senses mechanical movement of a trigger of the firearm and communicates a trigger actuation signal to the signal processing module corresponding to a position of the trigger. The event detection signal is further based on the trigger actuation signal.
Weapon testing and verification chamber
A weapon testing chamber is provided. The chamber enables the testing of conducted energy weapon (CEW) and contain any accidental discharges which may occur. In addition the chamber may also be utilized for safe unloading of a handgun by providing a testing chamber which can absorb any accidental discharges of the firearm and can accommodate differing models and types of weapons in a single testing chamber.

Test system for throwing mechanisms
A throwing mechanism that is located at an upper part of the chassis onto which at least one weight is attached and provides throwing the weight attached thereto. A base is located at a lower part of the chassis and onto which a weight is thrown by the throwing mechanism, at least one position adjuster is located on the base and provides aligning on the base the weight thrown onto the base so that it faces the throwing mechanism, and a control unit which enables to operate the position adjuster to move the base upwards so as to re-attach the weight to the throwing mechanism, and thus to test the throwing mechanism automatically.

BALANCE GUIDE FOR A TUBULAR ELEMENT
A test apparatus determines the state of torsional balance of an elongate device about its longitudinal axis. It has a base plate, supporting two sets of longitudinally spaced-apart low-friction roller bearings. The second bearings are mounted on the base at a higher location than the first bearings. A support for the second bearings has a side opening to allow lateral movement of the device under test into engagement with the underside of the second bearings which resting on the upper side of the first bearings. The device under test may be a rifle or a golf putter, the barrel or shaft respectively of which is supported on the roller bearings of the first set and in contact with the underside of the second bearings. The device will rotate about the longitudinal axis if not balanced about the axis. It is very easy and convenient for the user to place the tube in the guide to check for balance whenever checking balance of the item. The side opening allows use with a variety of devices having irregular shapes along its length.
