8,134,889: Systems and methods for augmenting gunshot location using echo processing features

Type:US
Application Number:13/012,781
Publication Date:20120313
Filing Date:20110124
Abstract:

Systems and methods are disclosed for processing weapon fire information such as gunfire. In one exemplary implementation, there is provided a method of processing gunshot information to determine source location information involving echo/reflection processing features. Moreover, the method may include processing gunshot information received from a source at a sensor having a reflecting surface at a given distance, processing direct arrival time and echo arrival time information, and determining source location information as a function of a virtual sensor calculated behind the surface.
