Shooting Training Assembly with Infrared Projection

摘要

A shooting target range assembly for use by a trainee marksman using IR night vision imaging equipment to view a target. The range may have at least one target support mechanism for supporting a target and an infrared (IR) light projector associated locally with the base for projecting an IR light locally onto the target to illuminate the target with substantially IR images. The night vision imaging equipment used is chosen to be compatible with the IR light projector chosen. The assembly detects projectile hits on illuminated targets from a projectile fired by a trainee marksman.

1. A night shooting target assembly for use by a trainee marksman using night vision imaging equipment to view a target, comprising:
a. at least one target support mechanism for supporting a target; b. an infrared (IR) light projector associated locally with said target support mechanism for projecting an IR light locally onto the target to illuminate the target with substantially only IR lights that excludes substantially any projected light that may be visible to a human naked eye; c. an IR light activator to permit IR light from the IR light projector to illuminate the target or to cease illuminating the target; d. a projectile hit detector for detecting a projectile hit on the target from a projectile fired by a trainee marksman; e. whereby at least one target support mechanism can be positioned at a desired location in the range and so the target will be non visible to a trainee marksman during night shooting using IR night shooting apparatus until such time as the IR light activator is activated to permit IR light from the locally associated IR light projector to illuminate the target, and wherein the projectile hit detector can provide an indication of a target hit by a projectile shot at the target by the trainee marksman when the target is illuminated by the IR light.
