System and method for automated gun shot measuring

A system for firearm shot measurement and management, comprising:

• i. an impact sensor coupled to a threshold voltage comparator, adapted to identify a shot event from said firearm, such that an impact event is defined as a shot event if a generated analog signal is above a defined energy threshold;
• iii. an electronic circuit including a battery, microprocessor and memory unit being adapted to be in a substantially sleep state except for a selected time interval related to said defined shot event;
• ii. a communications sub-system for enabling communicating of data relating to said shot event to an external data receiver upon demand;
• and
• iv. an external reader unit adapted to connect to said communications unit, to read said data from said memory.

A method for enabling energy efficient firearm shot measurement, comprising:

• i. waking up a shot sensing sub system from a sleep state, by an impact sensor set to react to a generation of an impact event above a selected threshold value, wherein said shot sensing sub system is coupled to a firearm;
• ii. powering up an electronic circuit to enable transfer of said force through the sensing sub system to a microprocessor, said powering up occurring substantially during the impact sequence;
• iii. translating analog data representing said impact sequence into digital data representing said impact event, by an Analog To Digital converter;
• iv. storing said digital data in a memory unit;
• and
• v. powering down said electronic circuit substantially immediately after data storage.
