Abstract
A muzzle flash simulator for use in an airsoft gun, comprising an internal passage, a detector, a controller, and multiple illuminating components. In response to a projectile passing through and away from the internal passage, the simulator will be triggered and flash multi-color lights on a projectile passage in front of the simulator. When each color light is illuminated on the moving projectile at a specific intensity at specified time periods, because of an afterimage phenomenon of the human eye, the surface of the moving projectile reflects the corresponding color and leaves a multi-layered light-trail accordingly.
Claims1
A muzzle flash simulator for briefly illuminating light on a projectile passage in front of the muzzle flash simulator after triggered, comprising:
- an internal passage disposed through the muzzle flash simulator;
- a detector configured to transmit a trigger signal to a controller in response to detecting a projectile passing through the internal passage;
- a first illuminating component coupled to the controller;
- and a second illuminating component coupled to the controller, wherein the controller transmits illuminating commands to the illuminating components in response to receiving the trigger signal from the detector and uses a basic set of instructions to transmit the illuminating commands;
- each instruction of the basic set of instructions includes a setting value for each one of the illuminating components at an indicated time period;
- and when receiving a subsequent trigger signal from the detector, the controller uses a subsequent set of instructions to transmit the illuminating commands to the illuminating components, wherein
- at least one setting value in the subsequent set of instructions is different from the corresponding setting value of said basic set of instructions.
