TARGET SYSTEM
A target system may include a carrier. The carrier may include a housing, at least one wheel rotatably coupled to an interior of the housing, at least one gear coupled to the at least one wheel, a motor coupled to the at least one gear to drive the at least one wheel via the at least one gear, and a controller to activate the motor based on user input. The target system may also include at least one arm coupled to the carrier, and a coupling device to couple a panel to the at least one arm.
Balloon target apparatus and method
A target apparatus including a post having a point on a first end, and an opposing second end; a plurality of support members, each having a first end connected to the second end of the post, and an opposing second end; and a central deflector having a point; and wherein each of the second ends of each of the plurality of support members is spaced apart from each of the other second ends of the plurality of support members; and wherein the central deflector is located within a perimeter defined by second ends of the plurality of support members.
