Virtual reality archery training system
An adjustable archery training bow assembly includes a single resistance element and an adjustment mechanism that can be actuated by a user to vary the tension level in the resistance element for training purposes. The training bow also includes a mount for receiving a mobile device, which allows the user to practice various augmented reality-archery training scenarios. The adjustable archery training bow is used to enhance the user's skills, such as his/her strength, stability, and accuracy to help deliver on-target an arrow fired from a real, non-training bow.
BOW RISER WITH INTEGRATED CENTRAL ACCESSORY MOUNT
An archery bow with a riser including a mount in a centerline plane of the riser above a lower wall of a sight window of the riser may allow for a novel manner of mounting an archery accessory. Placement of the mount within a centerline plane of the riser may maintain the weight of the archery accessory along a center of the bow, thereby reducing or eliminating asymmetrically weighted bows or the need for an additional stabilizer to balance the weight of the archery accessory. Positioning the mount above the lower wall of the sight window additionally allows for coordination of the position of a secondary accessory, such as a sight, a light, or a camera, in addition to mounting an arrow rest, such as in a lower wall of the sight window, while maintaining the centralized weight advantages noted above.
AUTOFOCUS AND AUTOZOOM RECORDING SYSTEM
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described which provide an autofocus and autozoom recording system. The recording system can include, for example, a recording device that can work in conjunction with a rangefinder to autofocus and autozoom even when a target moves. One or both of the recording device and the rangefinder can be mounted on a weapon, for example.

Magnetic smartphone mount for sporting equipment such as a compound bow, traditional bow, rifle, or crossbow
A mounting device to mount a personal device to sporting equipment includes a mounting bracket, a magnetic device, a magnetic plate and a foam dampener. The mounting bracket has a first end portion, a middle portion and a second end portion. The middle portion extends along an axis. The first end portion has a slot. The second end portion includes a personal device mounting portion. The magnetic device is coupled to the personal device mounting portion of the send end portion of the mounting bracket. The magnetic plate is configured to be affixed to the personal device. The foam dampener is affixed to the middle portion of the mounting bracket and configured to be compressed between the mounting bracket and the sporting equipment when mounted thereto.
Wireless camera network
A wireless camera network is disclosed. The wireless camera network includes a first camera and one or more other cameras. After an input is received by the first camera, the first camera records images or video, and the first camera wirelessly transmits a start signal to one or more other cameras to also start recording images or video and to also wirelessly transmit the start signal.
Bow sight apparatus having multiple lasers
A multiple laser sight system for an archery bow or the like configured so that the multiple laser systems can be calibrated together and having features such that the user can use one laser system during the day and one laser system during the light. The laser sight is further configured to not interfere with the optional use of conventional sighting pins and the use of evening infrared systems, like the prior art use of night vision goggles.
Methods and system for a stabilizing camera mount for an archery bow
Embodiments of a stabilizing camera mount apparatus having a mount assembly for mounting a camera to a bow, such as an archery bow. The mount assembly includes a camera mount with a plurality of springs and/or a dampening material interposed between a top plate and a bottom plate for providing a dampening effect that prevents the camera from excessive movement when the bow is moved by an individual.
