Systems and methods for electronic targeting or hit/touch detection
The present invention provides systems and methods for remote competition involving first and second sets of targets at first and second geographically remote locations. Status, hit and game information including game result information is communicated and received from first and second apps at the first and second locations via a cloud resource, and a competition occurs between users at the first and second locations.
Multi-Target Apparatus
The invention discloses an apparatus that enables a user to shoot multiple targets, both stationary and moving, consisting of a structure having three sides, optionally enclosed, and an open side to form an interior supporting primary targets and having a top supporting secondary targets. Primary targets, rotatably affixed to a target bar spanning the open side, have projections on the back which, upon impact, rotate to impact a secondary target positioned on the top of the apparatus. The impact uses the kinetic energy to launch the secondary target contained within a secondary target holder positioned on the top of the apparatus and open to the interior. The projections are dimensioned to have sufficient contact to launch the secondary target without getting embedded in the secondary target holder. The projection can be either permanently or removably affixed to the back of the targets and can, when removable, permit weight variations.
MOVABLE TARGET SYSTEM AND METHOD
A portable, moving target system that generates variable movements and mimics movements of prey. Movement of the target system may be varied in speed and pattern.
Portable target game with collecting unit
A portable target game that can be set up and played anywhere. The game consists of moving targets within a concave backstop, the moving targets being attached to flexible rods such that hits on target fall into the base of the concave backstop. The game is meant to be played with existing, lightweight projectiles such as NERF guns and plastic balls. The concave backstop is foldable such that the game can be folded up with all of the projectiles inside, and disassembled for convenient storage.

SHOOTING TRAINING SYSTEM
Shooting training systems have a self-propelled robotic target support platform operable to navigate on an extended surface, the platform supporting a target, the platform including a sensor array adapted to detect and register shot information about a shot generated by a shooter passing proximate the target, a transmitter on the platform adapted to transmit the shot information, and a receiver associated with the shooter adapted to receive the shot information and to provide shot information to the shooter. The platform may be a vehicle adapted to operate over a ground surface in any direction. The platform may be a watercraft. The platform may be a wheeled vehicle. The sensor array may be adapted to detect and register shot information including a location and direction of the shot. There may be a plurality of robotic target support platforms, each having a sensor array. The receiver may be adjacent to the shooter.
