These precision electronic targets provide developers, testers and manufacturers with a cost effective method of checking the performance of weapons and ammunition by measuring the co-ordinates of shots fired under test. They replace traditional methods of measurement such as paper or canvas targets and remove the associated problems of repeated access to the target area to retrieve paper targets for analysis, erection of large targets, failure to measure all shots fired due to the overlap of rounds and the time and errors involved in manual measurement. In particular removal of repeated access to the target area enhances range safety.

The Large Area Optical Target (LAOT) provides a virtual target plane for detection of a wide range of projectiles. Designed primarily for indoor use, it will detect projectiles with calibres between 5mm and 150mm travelling at velocities between 10m/s and 1500m/s. It will detect the X-Y co-ordinate position of shots at rates of fire up to 12000 rounds per minute with an accuracy of 5mm mean radial error for a 1m x 1m target and 10mm for a 5m x 5m target.

The Optical Targets Type 312 and 340 provide a virtual target plane for detection of a wide range of projectiles. Designed primarily for indoor use, they will detect projectiles with calibres between 5mm and 150mm travelling at velocities between 10m/s and 1500m/s.

This precision electronic target provides developers, manufacturers and trials and testing organisations with an accurate means of checking the performance of weapons and ammunition outdoors by measuring the coordinates of shots passing through the target area.Shot positions are instantaneously displayed on a graphical representation of the target area together with coordinate data and a running total of shots fired. A permanent record can be stored on disk or printed for subsequent analysis. A wide range of calibres can be detected and the detectable velocity range is similarly wide.
