Haptic feedback system that simulates a detonation or explosive event. The system includes a power supply, an energy storage circuit, a switching circuit, and a conductor operatively connected to said energy storage circuit through said switching circuit whereby said conductor causes a haptic event when said energy storage circuit is electrically connected to said conductor by operation of said switching circuit. The system creates shock waves and pressure waves in a safe manner for use in a simulator.

A projectile having a projectile body that includes a front end and a rear end. A cavity in the rear end of the projectile body. An internal core in the cavity. The internal core including a front end and a rear end. The front end of the internal core inserted towards the front end of the projectile body.

A target senses whether and where it has been struck by a laser light. The target includes a screen for allowing laser light to pass through, a plurality of light sensors behind the screen, and an optical display associated with one or more of the light sensors. When the target is struck by a laser light, a sensor records the strike, and the target may be struck with laser light multiple times, whereby different sensors may record the different strikes. To determine whether and where the target has been struck, the user activates a display mode that causes the optical displays in the target to illuminate. The user can then reset the target so the user can begin again.

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is used to make aids that target the training of K-9s to detect explosives. The process uses mixtures of explosives and matrices commonly used in AM. The explosives are formulated into a mixture with the matrix and printed using AM techniques and equipment. The explosive concentrations are kept less than 10% by wt. of the mixture to conform to requirements of shipping and handling.

An odor sample for explosives detection dogs includes a solution of the explosive in an ionic liquid, wherein the explosive is a nonperoxidic explosive. A process for producing an odor sample for explosives detection dogs as well as a process for using an odor sample for explosives detection dogs are also provided.
