The electronic target includes a front plate, a chamber behind the front plate, a MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) sensor element inside the chamber joined to the front plate by at least a connection element, a main control device electrically connected to the MEMS sensor element, and a signal processing element electrically connected to the MEMS sensor element and the main control device. Due to the MEMS sensor element's small dimension, light weight, low power consumption, high durability, low cost, and stable performance, it can be integrated into the electronic target simply by the connection element without being constrained by its shape and size, and the electronic target can be installed more conveniently and quickly.

The electronic target includes a main member having a target base and a front plate, a power element inside the target base, a main control device inside the target base and electrically connected to the power element, a MEMS sensor device behind the front plate and electrically connected to the main control device, and a wireless control device mounted on and electrically connected to the main control device. By leveraging the MEMS sensor device and the power element, the assembly and deployment of the electronic target becomes straightforward and less susceptible to damage. Moreover, the use of wireless communications relieves limitation by the venue and reduces susceptibility to interference. This simplifies the configuration and setup process for interactions between targets, achieving increased variability in shooting modes and enhancing entertainment or training effectiveness.

The present disclosure provides systems and techniques for identifying gun events. A gun event may include a nominal event, such as the discharging of a projectile or the ejecting of a cartridge shell, or an anomalous event, such as a misfire or a failure to feed. An apparatus may include a sensor that measures motion of a gun along multiple axes. The apparatus may identify a gun event based on the measured motion of the gun satisfying a motion condition. The motion condition may include an acceleration threshold value, and the measured motion of the gun may satisfy the motion condition based on a measured acceleration value exceeding the threshold acceleration value. The apparatus may transmit an electrical signal based on the measured motion of the gun satisfying the motion condition. The electrical signal may reset a charging circuit, increment a shot count, or decrement a round count.
