Abstract
Electronic counting device (11) of shots fired by a firearm, which comprises an impulse sensor (12) that is electrically connected to a signal processor (13), which in turn is electrically connected to a data storage unit (14).
Claims11
1-10. (canceled)
An electronic counting device of shots fired by a firearm characterized in that the electronic counting device (11) comprises an impulse sensor (12);
- a signal processor (13) electrically connected to the impulse sensor (12);
- and a data storage unit (14) electrically connected to the signal processor (13).
A method to count shots fired with a firearm, comprising:
- selecting a kind of cartridge stored in a data storage unit (14);
- acquiring a multitude of samples at predetermined instants of time in an impulse peak received at an input terminal of a signal processor (13) based on characteristic parameters derived from a standard impulse signal associated with the kind of cartridge selected,
- comparing the tension value of the acquired samples with a predetermined tension value threshold based on an impulse peak relative to the shot itself included in the selected standard impulse signal;
- if the acquired samples are greater than or equal to the predetermined tension threshold and are maintained during a time interval determined by the standard impulse signal, and
- acquiring a predetermined number of samples in an off-peak zone subsequent to the impulse peak received.
