Laser Target for Simulating Shooting Sport

Abstract

This work deals with complete design of a system for simulating shooting sport. Key aspects of the design are similarity with shooting from ordinary mechanical weapons, multifunctionality and low costs. The core of the simulation is a laser transmitter in the weapon and a photosensitive receiver in the target. The final version of the system is controlled by a group of microcontrollers and provides several types of feedback. For example lighting the place that has been hit with LED, sound signals, displaying shooting results, or evaluating them with a computer.
