The present disclosure relates to an automatic control type hot smoke testing system which includes a fire source system, a smoke generation system and a control system. The fire source system is used for generating fire source and includes a first tank and several liquid fuel atomizing jet burners, wherein the first tank includes an air tank which is used for providing air and a fuel control tank which is used for controlling valves, distributing fuel and inspecting flame of the burners. The smoke generation system is used for generating smoke and includes a second tank, a smoke outlet pipe, smoke cake clamps and smoke cake turntables. Smoke cakes are initially placed in the smoke cake clamps, then moved to an ignition position one by one by for ignition, and finally rotated to through hole positions of a smoke generation box to fall into the smoke generation box by the servo motor. The control system is used for controlling the fire source system and the smoking generation system. The present disclosure overcomes the defects of the traditional manual hot smoke test, and realizes the accurate control of the smoke generation speed, the fire source power and the burning time, which has the characteristics of accuracy, light weight, automation and convenient disassembly and transportation.

A smoke generator and driver circuit (46) for controlling and powering a smoke generating canister (38), said driver circuit (46) comprising a power output connected to said smoke generating canister (38) for activation thereof. It comprises a charging unit (50) providing after a charging process sufficient power for igniting and driving said smoke generating canister (38), a switching unit (52) connected to said charging unit (50) and to a first pole (56) of said smoke generating canister (38) for releasing power from said charging unit (50) to said smoke generating canister (38), and a connecting unit (54) connected to a second pole (58) of said smoke generating canister (38) for allowing power to flow through said smoke generating canister (38), wherein activation of both said connecting unit (54) and said switching unit (52) during an overlapping time period is required for activation of said smoke generating canister (38). A method comprises applying a charging signal a charging input of the driver circuit (46), applying a control signal to a connect input of said driver circuit (46), and applying a trigger signal at a trigger input of switching unit (52).

Disclosed is a masking material intended to be disseminated by an ammunition or a launcher to create a cloud that masks a target with respect to electromagnetic radiation in a given wavelengths range. This material contains at least one aluminium oxyhydroxide, such as boehmite or pseudoboehmite. Also disclosed is an ammunition enabling the dissemination of such masking material and the use of aluminium oxyhydroxide, such as boehmite or pseudoboehmite as a masking material that can be disseminated by an ammunition.

A test kit includes a tube arranged to channel smoke generated by a smoke generator, a mount arranged to support the tube relative to the smoke generator in a predetermined orientation and a predetermined spacing relative to the smoke generator, and a sensor. The sensor is arranged for coupling to the tube and generating data indicative of one or more property of the smoked generated by the smoke generator and channeled by the tube to monitor performance of the smoke generator. Test arrangements, test systems, and methods of monitoring smoke generators are also described.

A smoke producing method and device of the present disclosure produces a non-incendiary, organic-polymerization based, smoke-producing reaction. Some versions of the smoke are effective carriers for capsaicinoid compounds. The method of generating smoke comprises initiating a frontal polymerization reaction by heating a composition comprising a monomer compound that exothermically polymerizes upon initiation with an initiator compound and an initiator compound that initiates polymerization of the monomer compound present at a mass concentration that is at least five percent of the mass concentration of the monomer compound. The polymerization of the monomer compound is exothermic, and in one embodiment the concentration of initiator compound is at least five percent of the concentration of monomer compound. The smoke mainly comprises thermal decomposition products of the initiator compound.

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.
