The Boomerang System





Okay, enough about BBN - the vehicle-mounted Boomerang sensor system identifies the origination point of hostile gunfire, in open fields and urban environments, whether static or moving, and in all weather conditions. Sensors mounted in an array at the top of a mast attached to the rear of a vehicle detect both supersonic shock waves and sound waves from the muzzle blast to accurately identify the location from which a shot is fired. Users receive simultaneous visual and auditory information on the point of fire from an LED 12-hour clock image display panel and speaker mounted inside the vehicle.

Boomerang II detects supersonic small arms fire travelling toward the vehicle for bullet trajectories that pass within close proximity to the vehicle and at maximum effective weapon ranges. Incoming fire detection and shooter position are determined and reported in less than 2 seconds. The system resets for subsequent shot detection.

False shot detections are less that one per thousand hours of system operation at vehicle speeds under 50 miles per hour. Missed shots are less than one per 500 shots at vehicle speeds under 50 miles per hour. The system is calibrated to detect the 7.62x39 mm round, which is the round fired by the AK-47 and similar small arms. This round belongs to the family of .30-caliber rifle rounds and travels supersonically when fired from a rifle. However, this calibration does not preclude the system from detecting larger and smaller rounds. In fact, the system has been tested and proven to perform successfully with 5.56 NATO and .50 caliber machine gun rounds.

Only now do I see you In the way that other people do
I see you clearer than before And love you more
I never knew that I would feel this way
Once in while, come light my way from where you are
Have you ever thought just maybe You belong with me
