Collecting Environmental Data Along a Ballistic Trajectory
Automated systems and methods for collecting environmental data along a ballistic trajectory are disclosed. The systems and methods may comprise automatically estimating the ballistic trajectory of a projectile. The systems and methods may comprise automatically converting the ballistic trajectory into a ballistic flight path comprising a plurality of coordinates. The systems and methods may comprise electronically communicating the ballistic flight path to a guidance system of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The guidance system may be configured to cause the UAV to navigate along the ballistic flight path. The systems and methods may comprise automatically collecting environmental data along the ballistic flight path.

System and method for tracking a target and for compensating for atmospheric turbulence
A system and a method for tracking a target and for compensating for atmospheric turbulence is described. In an embodiment, the system includes at least two light sources each emitting a light beam to the target; at least two collimators that collimate the light beam of the associated light source; and a reference device to reflect a portion of the light beam exiting from all the collimators. The system also includes: at least two targeting modules to lead the light beam from the light source to reach a predetermined zone of the target; at least two detection modules to receive and detect the portion of the beam reflected by the reference device; a module for determining angle of deviation; a module for determining phase deviation; and an adjustment module for adjusting each of the light sources in order to compensate for atmospheric turbulence.

Actionless Rifle
A rifle includes a magazine well, a barrel, and an exo-bolt. The barrel is configured to be detachably coupled to the magazine well. The barrel includes a forward barrel portion on an end of the barrel opposite the magazine well. The exo-bolt is configured to travel along an exterior of the barrel.
Weapon sighted camera system
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described which provide weapon sighted cameras. A camera can be mounted on a weapon and, after a set-up procedure, can acquire a target without using a weapon sight of the weapon.

IMAGING SYSTEM FOR FIREARM
Embodiments of a firearm device (15) and system employ enhanced optics that can be fixed to a firearm (20), wherein each optical unit is optimized for varying distances from the firearm. An image processor interleaves video streams from each optical unit to present the operator with a unified field of view. Object recognition functions executed by a processor integrated with the device can evaluate the individual video streams, applying object recognition applications to recognize and identify threats/targets within the effective range of each optical unit/image sensor, enabling, among other things, real-time, rapid target identification across multiple distances and prioritization.
