Systems, devices, and methods are provided, wherein a device is attachable to or integrated in a firearm and includes a plurality of sensors that are each configured to sense a respective attribute of the firearm or of an environment surrounding the firearm, and are further configured to provide corresponding signals based on sensing the respective attribute. The systems, devices, and methods may be configured to determine an event from among a plurality of events based on the corresponding signals provided by the plurality of sensors. Systems that include the device may record event data and transmit the event data to various user systems for situational awareness, record keeping, training, and other organizational or legal-process purposes.

A foldable support for aiming an aimable device, including: (a) a coupling arrangement adapted to releasably couple the aimable device thereto; (b) a foldable leg mechanically coupled to the coupling arrangement; (c) two linear actuators adapted to be angularly spaced apart, the two linear actuators adjustably coupled to the coupling arrangement; and (d) a collapsible reinforcement frame selectively providing rigid interconnection between bases of each of the two linear actuators and the foldable leg, and collapsible to provide a compact portable form of the support.

The projectile-launcher operation monitoring device includes at least one displacement-sensor and a processor coupled with the displacement-sensor. The displacement-sensor acquires measurements relating to the displacement of the projectile-launcher and to produce a sampled time signal of values relating to the displacement. The processor receives from the displacement-sensor the sampled time signal to determine projectile-launcher operation parameters therefrom, by employing a deep-learning system. The deep-learning system includes an encoder receiving sample-frames from the sampled time signal producing codes relating to the sample-frames. Each of the codes is a vector of values relating to the probabilities of features in the received sample-frames.

A weapon-mounted Fire Control System (FCS) for a handheld weapon includes an imaging sensor and a processing system configured to operate in two modes. In a first mode, for handheld operation of the weapon, the processing system tracks a target, determines an aim-region with which the weapon should be aligned for firing in order to strike the target, and generates an output to facilitate accurate firing of the weapon towards the aim region. The output may indicate the aim region on a display, and/or may control a firing control mechanism. In a second mode, when the weapon is on an adjustable weapon support, the processor tracks a target, determines an aim-region, and generates output signals for controlling operation of at least one actuator of the adjustable weapon support in order to align the weapon with the aim region.

A system and method for a programmable trigger device for a firearm, capable of situational awareness providing intelligent contextual data related to projectile management to a downstream firing device. In particular, a smart trigger system that evaluates targets in line-of-fire, estimated target age, estimated target distance, and other contextual data that is then passed along to a programmable device. The device, as provided by the consumer of this invention, may make the determination then whether to eject or prevent ejection of a bullet after the trigger is activated, firing an alternative shot based on environmental factors of which the device is aware, or other activations or deactivations as seen fit.

A reliable and robust electromechanical safety device maximises the security of a weapon by preventing accidental firing situations. The safety device includes a safety element for connecting or disconnecting a kinematic shooting chain; the safety element is arrangeable inside the weapon at its rear part, connecting with the trigger bar and the backstrap of the weapon. Therefore, by controlling the position of the trigger bar, it is possible to control the safe and firing position of the weapon, in addition to, and independent of, the other original weapon safeties.

A smart gun communicating over a communication network. Wherein, the smart gun includes a triggering mechanism in order to lock/unlock the trigger for preventing/allow the gun to fire bullets, wherein the triggering mechanism is based on the information received from the GPS or the camera installed in the smart gun. Further, the safety system sends a message and/or GPS location of the smart gun over the communication network to the one or more concern authorities (i.e. law enforcement agency and/or the authorized user) in case the safety system detects any tamper to the safety gun.
