Abstract
A simulated non-lethal weapon comprises a cartridge that is fitted with an acoustic triggering mechanism. By detecting, capturing, and processing the sound of an electrical arc, the cartridge can activate a laser emitter. The laser emitter triggers a simulated laser “bullet” light and the laser light can be used to provide feedback about the shot placement for the simulated firearm in a laser-based simulation and training environment. In this fashion, more effective and efficient training with simulated non-lethal weapons can be conducted.
