OPTICALLY TRACKED PROJECTILE
20210108905 · 2021-04-15 ·

A projectile, that can be tracked by optical means, is fitted with a special tracer incorporated into the projectile's trailing edge. The rearward facing special tracer is incorporated into a metal disk which is crimped to the projectile's metal jacket. The special tracer includes micro-prismatic features that reflect light at the incidence angle. Alternatively, the disk incorporates a fluorescent dye that is responsive to a laser emission. External emitted radiation is reflected or re-emitted from the trailing edge of the projectile, allowing for an external electro-optic tracking device to identify the position of the projectile in flight.

Bullet detection system

A portable Doppler microwave radar defense system that saves lives in dangerous situations, and alerts a person from surrounded threats, exposes enemy location, and shows the health data and injured person's location to remote server at a base. The system lets the person know about the surrounded threats before it happens, as it will detect any bullets in the detection zone and alert the person immediately from the incoming bullet within a long range which will let the person have seconds to avoid the bullet and save his life and the location of the shooter will be exposed to the person. The detection system can also be deployed over an object such as a car, truck, battle tank, aircraft, jet, helicopter, spaceship, or a satellite.

External subsystem for automatic weapon system to determine which weapon has greatest probability of hitting the target
10996026 · 2021-05-04 ·

An automated weapons system is comprised of a plurality of weapon subsystems each comprising at least one human transported weapon subsystem. Each of the plurality of weapon subsystems is comprises a barrel, a targeting subsystem, a computational subsystem, positioning means, and a firing subsystem. The barrel is utilized for propelling a munition from each of the plurality of weapon subsystems aimed towards an area of sighting. The targeting subsystem identifies a chosen target for each of said plurality of weapon subsystems in the area of sighting. The computational subsystem, responsive to the targeting subsystem, determines where the chosen target is for each weapon subsystem (out of plurality) and where the respective barrel needs to be aimed for each weapon subsystem (out of plurality) so that the munitions will strike the chosen target. The positioning means adjusts the aim of the munitions for each weapon subsystem, responsive to the computational subsystem, out of plurality of weapons subsystems. The firing subsystem, fires the munitions from at least one to each of said plurality of weapon subsystems at the chosen target for one of the weapons subsystems, responsive to the positioning means from at least one of the plurality of the weapons subsystems.
