A universal marksmanship training system is disclosed herein configured to utilize a display device comprising a graphic display. A software application may also be provided. The software application is often configured to display a virtual target on the graphic display. A chamber insert may be utilized, the chamber insert configured to be positioned with the firing chamber of a firearm to be zeroed, wherein the chamber insert interacts with the software application to determine alignment of a bore of the firearm to a bore alignment point on the graphic display. In one form, the display device displays a sight target on the graphic display wherein the sight target is visually perceived by a marksman and is offset from the bore alignment point by an offset distance. In one form, the software application calculates the sight target relative to the bore alignment point of the firearm given a set of condition variables.

New targeting systems, hardware and techniques are provided, in which an auxiliary probe is first launched and deployed at a target. Extremely precise, deliberate targeting for future projectiles, weapons or non-lethal measures is then made relative to the position and orientation of the probe. In one embodiment, a system enables a sniper to plan measures with extreme precision within an environment, evaluate their effectiveness, and execute them extremely rapidly once satisfied. A user may create, set, adjust and execute Impact Point indicators, corresponding with projected points of impact of a projectile on a target subject within a target environment. The system may counteract and otherwise adjust for certain ballistic and environmental factors in a firing mechanism to maintain such an Impact Point fire ready, in real time. Yet the system is unobtrusive, allowing the user to engage ordinary targeting activity.

A simulated firearm includes a body, a camera, a memory, and a processor. The body has a handle, a trigger, and a barrel portion. The barrel portion defines a shooting axis. The camera is coupled to the body and aligned with the shooting axis. The camera is configured to capture an image in response to actuation of the trigger. The memory is coupled to the body and stores marker data corresponding to at least one target marker. The processor is coupled to the body and configured to determine whether a portion of the image captured by the camera matches any one or more of the at least one target marker.

A method and system for training a person in the aiming of firearms at moving targets is described, the method including the steps of: providing at least one moving target; calculating the correct lead for the at least one target; displaying a visualisation of the correct lead to the person

A simulator for simulating a use of a missile of an attacking system is proposed. The simulator comprises: a storage device for storing of a terrain model of a battle terrain and target object models of target objects; a sensing unit for sensing and tracking a defined target object of the target objects in the battle terrain; a transmitting unit for transmitting a coded laser signal to the defined target object; a receiving unit for receiving a response signal transmitted by the defined target object; a providing unit for providing a target object model for the defined target object in dependence on at least type information of the received response signal; and a visual means associated with the missile for outputting a current visual representation of the battle terrain by means of the terrain model, the provided target object model and the location information.

A firing simulation scope, for installation on a rifle, includes an inertial measurement unit, a windage correction adjustment device, an electronic system, a microphone, a display and an interface for connection to a control station. The electronic system is configured for: receiving, via the connection interface, video data representing a field of view, through a simulated scope, in the virtual environment; displaying on the display the received video data; obtaining a real time audio microphone recording; comparing the audio recording with a predetermined firing-triggering signature of the rifle; and transmitting, to the control station via the connection interface, when the audio recording matches the predetermined signature, a firing triggering detection signal associated with inertial measurements supplied by the first inertial measurement unit and with a first adjustment setting supplied by the windage correction adjustment device, to enable the control station to determine a firing trajectory in the virtual environment.

A turret of a scope can include a cap, a turret body connected to the cap, an electronic display wrapped circumferentially around the turret body, and a button positioned on or through a surface of the cap to engage the electronic display. In certain implementations, upon depressing the button, the electronic display presents a graphical visualization. In addition, the graphical visualization can include at least one of distance compensation data, a ballistic profile, or environmental conditions.
