A target system designed to be stand-alone and modular which includes a target area which is two or more sided and which can be rotated through a large number of different positions and rotations. The system can also include systems for projectile impact recognition. Target rotation is generally accomplished through a target base that is in communication with and configured to receive data input from a remote target controller.

An impact triggered dynamic target system includes, a target body with legs that can be ground spikes; a target release assembly, including a target holder including first and second holder pegs; a primary target assembly, including a primary target disc, a secondary target pusher including first and second secondary target pushers, and first and second target sliders slidably mounted on the first and second holder pegs, and a plurality of secondary target discs; a rolling track with a rolling surface and first and second side rails; and a projectile receptacle, such that a practice shooter shoots that the primary target disc, which releases a secondary target disc, which rolls down the rolling track and off the impact triggered dynamic target system, such that the practice shooter can shoot at the rear disc, while the rear disc is rolling on an adjacent ground surface.

A system for projecting an image of a target is provided. In one embodiment, the system comprises a rail having a longitudinal axis; a target carrier coupled to the rail such that the target carrier can translate along the longitudinal axis of the rail; a motor and motion controller coupled to the target carrier wherein the motor is configured to cause the target carrier to translate along the longitudinal axis of the rail; a projector carrier coupled to the rail and held in fixed relational position to the target carrier; and a projector affixed to the projector carrier and oriented to point back towards the target carrier. In some embodiments, one or more cameras may also be added to the target carrier, projector carrier, or both.

To realize a sample lifting and lowering device capable of easily responding to increase of a diameter of a sample with light weight and high rigidity as well as with less directional dependence of rigidity as the sample lifting lowering device arranged above a horizontal movement mechanism. The sample lifting and lowering device includes first and second lifting and lowering mechanisms that lift and lower a sample stage to which the sample is fixed, first and second driving devices that drive the first and second lifting and lowering mechanisms to be lifted and lowered individually and a controller that synchronizes lifting/lowering operations of the first and second lifting and lowering mechanisms by the first and second driving devices by first and second control signals, in which the first lifting and lowering mechanism includes a first deceleration mechanism generating a first drive output obtained by decelerating a first drive input given from the first driving device in a direction different from a direction of the input, the second lifting and lowering mechanism includes a second deceleration mechanism generating a second drive output obtained by decelerating a second drive input given from the second driving device in a direction different from a direction of the input, and directions of the first and second drive inputs are different from each other as well as are not on the same straight line.

A system trains usage of a firearm and includes an end unit, a processing subsystem, and a control subsystem remotely located from the end unit. The end unit includes an image sensor that is positioned against a target that has a bar code. The image sensor defines a field of view of a scene that includes the target, and the bar code stores encoded information that defines a target coverage zone. The system selectively operates in a first mode and a second mode according to input from the control subsystem. In the first mode the end unit scans the bar code to extract the target coverage zone. In the second mode the image sensor captures a series of images of the target coverage zone, and the processing subsystem analyzes regions of the captured series of images to determine a strike, by a projectile of the firearm, on the target.
