US12716697 - System and method for marksmanship training
The present invention is a mobile app using a mobile computing device's camera and microphone to monitor and score metrics for a shooting drill assigned to a marksman on the display of the mobile computing device. Mobile computing devices for multiple users of the mobile app are in networked communication with a server. The individual data points for total time, split time(s), reaction time(s), accuracy, and precision as well as an overall combined score can be saved for each marksman and compared to other marksmen's shooting metrics. Scores can also be assessed based on decision making, such as shoot/threat vs. no shoot/nonthreat. The present invention also provides a virtual shooting range in which users engage in online community activities, competitions, forums, skill building, and training. The mobile app receives wireless signals from a dynamic target stand indicating a target is turned and automatically correlates target turns with the shot clock.
