Example systems, devices, and methods related to an automated target system are provided. In this regard, a target pod device, that may be installed in a target base is provided. The target pod device may include a hinge, a target paddle, a rotary actuator, a sensor, and a processor. The target paddle may be operably coupled to the hinge and the rotary actuator may be operably coupled to the target paddle. The rotary actuator may be configured to rotate the target paddle to a deployed position or a retracted position. The sensor may detect that the target paddle has been moved toward the retracted position. The processor may be configured to transmit a signal to the rotary actuator to cause the rotary actuator to rotate the target paddle, and determine whether the target paddle has been moved toward the retracted position by a projectile.

The present invention is directed towards a target shooting system with novel function allowing it to incorporate various targets sizes and quantities, as well as different shooting configurations by means of remote triggers.

A target shooting system is described. The system can include at least one target signal/sensor assembly, the target signal/sensor assembly including an active target signal, an active target signal actuator, at least one hit sensor, and a target signal/sensor transceiver. The system can also include a round counter configured to be attached to a weapon and to sense firing of a projectile from the weapon, the round counter including a projectile firing sensor, a round counter processor and a round counter transceiver. The system can further include a computing device configured to communicate with the at least one target signal/sensor assembly and the round counter.

A target carrier system and a method of use are disclosed for controlling the presentation of a target during firearms training. The system and method may be used to improve decision making on whether or not to discharge a weapon when exposed to a potential threat.

A live-fire training system enables users to setup customizable tactical scenarios in multiple-threat and judgmental exercises. The live-fire training system includes at least one remote management unit and a plurality of target-attachment units. The at least one remote management unit synchronizes with each of the plurality of target-attachment units in order to control and manage each of the plurality of target-attachment units. Further, the at least one remote management unit communicates with an external computing device of a user in order to process commands inputted by the user. Each of the plurality of target-attachment units is mounted onto a metal target in order gather hit-detection data and to visually distinguish specific targets amongst a plurality of metal targets.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for accurately and safely directing the movement of shooting range targets, and more specifically, to provide self-calibration and synchronicity to programmable target carriers and automatically resetting targets.
