A device and a method thereof for operating an electronic detonator having an auxiliary power function are proposed. The device is configured to include a power supply unit configured to supply power to a power source unit of the detonation capacitor and a power source unit of the operation capacitor, a power state determination unit configured to determine a state of the power charged in the power source unit of the operation capacitor, and an auxiliary power supply request unit configured to request auxiliary power supply to the power source unit of the detonation capacitor when the determined state of the power charged in the power source unit of the operation capacitor falls within a preset abnormal power state range.

An ignition system for energetics including artillery charges includes a radio frequency transmitter and a radio frequency igniter. The radio frequency ignitor receives and converts radio frequency energy into heat or electrical energy for the purpose of igniting energetics, such as propellants or pyrotechnics. The radio frequency igniter may be applied to the exterior of the energetic container or may be integral to the container.

A method and apparatus for providing a universal plug in cartridge detonator capability in box-by-box perforating guns by providing a tandem sub, having a cartridge detonator assembly, that is capable of connecting to a box end of a perforating gun on one side and connecting to a pinned end of a second perforating gun.

The invention relates to a test and/or practice ammunition having at least one projectile with a projectile head and a fin which can be found at the end of the projectile for example or a projectile with a projectile base and a projectile ogive. A cartridge shell is used to receive a drive and has a shell base, wherein an interface is attached in or on the shell base. The test and/or practice ammunition is characterized by a programmable fuze which is arranged in the projectile head or the projectile ogive. The projectile head/projectile ogive is equipped with at least one fuze amplifier and an electronic fuze system and optionally a separating charge.

Haptic feedback system that simulates a detonation or explosive event. The system includes a power supply, an energy storage circuit, a switching circuit, and a conductor operatively connected to said energy storage circuit through said switching circuit whereby said conductor causes a haptic event when said energy storage circuit is electrically connected to said conductor by operation of said switching circuit. The system creates shock waves and pressure waves in a safe manner for use in a simulator.
