Add some smarts to your target!
Mount the NateChrony SmartTarget to the back of your existing targets, when the target is struck by an object & moves - the SmartTarget will detect the movement, register the shot, and based on the way your target moves - tell you approximately where the shot landed.
SmartTarget
The NateChrony SmartTartget has an inbuilt motion sensor that detects movement, by analysing this movement it can detect being hit, and also the possible location of that hit. Mounting to a free moving target such as a hanging gong is highly recommended - as it can freely move in left-right and up-down directions.
The SmartTarget can be mounted to any surface, and used to detect any object - airguns, firearms, baseball… If you need to detect movement and strike location, the SmartTarget is for you.
The features will be rapidly improving as we get customer feedback and develop additional features.
