Hello everyone!
I'm a police officer wanting to develop some firearm training lasers that are vibration activated, similar to the LaserBlaster-X and LaserLytes LT-Pro.
I'm planning on trying to develops these to work with gas operated air-soft pistols for affordable realistic firearm simulator training. I currently have a projector, special laser tracking camera, LaserBlaster-X (in 650nm and one in 780nm), and a Beretta 92FS that I practice with. I currently have small programs for developing marksmanship, but I'm developing software similar to the old Police Quest Swat game where depending on what you do, there can be many different outcomes.
I plan on making all these plans, and the software Open Source. These firearm trainers cost on the low end of $8000 for police departments, and on average $20,000. Some of the higher end firearm trainers cost $250,000. Unfortunately, not all police departments have the funding - case in point, where I'm from there are sometimes no police, sheriff, or state troopers for several hours during the night because of budget. Hopefully, my project will save police departments and the taxpayers money and increase training.
If anyone wants to help or has questions, feel free to shoot me a message.
Take care and stay safe!
