The unmanned complex of assess marksmanship performance

Abstract

Recently, in the training of military soldiers and officers, much attention has been paid to improving the efficiency and accuracy of shooting from small arms. Considering that hundreds and thousands of soldiers and officers participate in military exercises, there is a need to create robotic systems that would quickly assess the accuracy of shooting without the participation of a human operator. This paper presents the developed unmanned robotic complex of assess marksmanship performance for small arms fire. The complex is designed for effective training of soldiers and officers in shooting at close and long distances (20 ¸ 1500 m.). The operating principle of the system is briefly described and technical characteristics are given. It is shown that the proposed unmanned robotic system has significant advantages over foreign analogues. The shooting evaluation system uses automated LOMAH software, hardware, and a PTZ camera to conduct and automatically evaluate shots at various types of targets according to the shooting task. An electric Power Supply Unit, a Motor Control Unit and a software algorithm for controlling the complex have been developed. It has been shown that the developed robotic complex has a number of advantages over existing analogues.
