Arrow Tracking Device
20230204333 · 2023-06-29 ·

The present invention relates generally to the field of arrows. More specifically, the present invention relates to an arrow tracking device that provides a mechanism for a user to locate an arrow after it is fired. The device comprises at least one arrow, which is further comprised of an arrowhead, shaft, nock, and fletching. The shaft features a GPS transmitter, while the nock features an LED. The arrowhead may be unscrewed from the shaft to reveal a USB port, which, in turn, may be plugged into a charging base to recharge the device. The device may further comprise a mobile application so that a user can utilize and customize the electronic functions of the device. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices and methods of manufacture.

Projectile payload for training ammunition with multi-spectral output
20230194226 · 2023-06-22 ·

A chemiluminescent projectile having multi-spectral output, including daytime viewable, nighttime viewable and thermal outputs. The chemiluminescent projectile has a payload that permits the visualization of the fired projectile using a variety of detecting methods including human vision, night vision equipment/infrared devices, and thermal detecting devices during day and night conditions. The chemiluminescent projectile comprises a body having reagents that produce both chemiluminescent and exothermic reactions that generate light and heat sufficient to act as a visual and thermal marker.

Spin-stabilized non-lethal projectile with a shear-thinning fluid

A non-lethal projectile having a shear-thinning fluid within an interior cavity. The shear-thinning fluid having a greater apparent viscosity at low shear rates to spin-stabilize the non-lethal projectile during flight and a lower apparent viscosity at a high shear rate corresponding with the shear-thinning fluid shearing against the frangible cap upon the non-lethal projectile striking the target, with the low viscosity of the shear-thinning fluid allowing proper dispersal upon impact with the target. The shear-thinning fluid can comprise a marking media and be in the form of an emulsion with less than about 50% liquid by volume to effectively disperse upon impact with the target.
