A wearable electronic kit, system and method for playing a game involving a plurality of players is disclosed. The kit includes a transmitter configured to emit a signal identifying the player wearing the electronic kit and a receiver configured to read the signals transmitted by the electronic kits worn by other players and measure the signal strength of each of said signals. The kit includes a processor coupled to the receiver which creates zones of influence around the other players by defining a preselected signal strength threshold for each signal. The processor is configured to recognize a presence event in the zone of influence by comparison of the signal strength read by the receiver to the preselected signal strength threshold of the player. The processor is configured to store a set of rules and to use the recognition of the presence event in the application of the rules.

A Powder Dispersal Target Impact Indication System (PDS) includes a body configured to contain a powdered substance for dispersing into air external to the body on impact of a target by a firearm projectile. A mounting structure is used to mount the body to the target. A securing cap is configured to retain the powdered substance within the body. A dispersal aperture is configured to disperse the powdered substance.

A method for detecting a shot hit on an inflatable shooting target and for providing a real-time indication of the hit. The method includes the step of providing a shooting target system with one or more inflatable shooting targets, each of them is assembled on a blower, a power source that is connected to each blower through a controller that controls the activation of each blower, and a current meter between the controller and the power source. The method includes the second step of measuring the current that flow to a certain blower, detecting changes in the current level that occurs upon a hit in a certain inflatable shooting target that is assembled on that certain blower, and making and indication of the hit by turning off the certain blower or by sending a notification to a mobile device of the user or the operator.

A mobile-target training system includes a base having independently-controlled motorized wheels coupled thereto. A target is coupled to the base and has a penetration detector coupled thereto. The penetration detector includes an open electric circuit having electrical properties. The open electric circuit exhibits a change in its electrical properties for each occurrence of an object passing through the open electric circuit. A feedback generator coupled to the penetration detector generates recognizable feedback for each occurrence of change in the electrical properties of the open electric circuit.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for live action gaming.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for live action gaming.

A target system can detect the location of a projectile disposed within a target and subsequently alter an image being displayed on the target in response to the location of the detected projectile. The target system can include a sensor, an image source, a portable electronic device, and a computing device. The sensor can be positioned on the target to detect the location of the projectile on a face of the target. The image source can project an image onto the face of the target. The portable electronic device can receive input from a user to dictate the image(s) displayed on the target. The computing device can be communicatively coupled to the sensor, the image source, and the portable electronic device and cause the target system to detect the location of the projectile and subsequently alter the image displayed on the target in response to the location.

A shooting target, including an air blower, a fabric envelope assembled on the air blower, for being inflatable thereby, and an electric current meter, for measuring electric current flowing through the air blower, thereby allowing indicating a bullet shot on the fabric envelope while being inflated, upon determining a change in the measured electric current.
