A system and method for simulating lead of a target includes a network, a simulation administrator and a user device connected to the network, a database connected to the simulation administrator, and a set of position trackers positioned at a simulator site. The user device includes a virtual or augmented reality unit and a computer connected to the network. A target may be simulated or may be a real-world object. The target and the user are tracked to generate a phantom target and a phantom halo. The phantom target and the phantom halo are displayed on the virtual or augmented reality unit at a lead distance and a drop distance from the target.

A mobile gun range system having a gun range positioned in a container attached to a mobile platform such as a semi-trailer. The mobile system includes a self-contained air handling system, automated target retrieval system, and projection system. The mobile unit can include a generator and fuel storage.

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.

An ecological shooting training panel has a compact metal sheet retained by a first metal support frame, a rhomboid-shaped metal mesh disposed on the compact metal sheet, and a compact layer of elastomeric material covering the rhomboid-shaped metal mesh. The rhomboid-shaped metal mesh is retained by a second metal support frame connected to the first metal support frame. The elastomeric material is spaced from the compact metal sheet to provide an open gap formed by the compact metal sheet, rhomboid-shaped metal mesh and elastomeric material. A target is configured to be removably mounted over the elastomeric material such that when a projectile is fired at the target, the projectile passes through the target and the combined structural arrangement of the compact metal sheet, rhomboid-shaped metal mesh and elastomeric material absorbs an impact energy of the projectile, and residue generated by the projectile drops through the open gap.

Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for providing a live-fire simulation game. The present invention relates to a method for providing a shooting simulation by using live rounds and an apparatus for the same, wherein: a simulation image is output on each of image screens installed in a live-fire exercise room; and the impact point of a live round fired by a shooter according to the output simulation image is calculated by sensing the position of the live round and is compared with the position of a target included in the simulation image, so as to generate shooting result information.

A system and method for determining a projectile impact location is described. Embodiments of the projectile impact location system can include, but is not limited to, a control module, a camera with removable filter, a projector, and a light source. The projectile impact location system can be implemented to determine a location of a projectile impact and generate coordinates of the impact location for use by an animation engine.
