Universal Infantry Weapons Trainer (UIWT). Volume 1. M-16 Rifle Model.

Abstract

The Universal Infantry Weapons Trainer (UIWT) is an electro-optic based, microcomputer controlled, training device that enables tactical infantry weapons training with a M-16 rifle, under a simulated high stress battle field environment. The battlefield is simulated using a 16mm movie. A receiver on the weapon is used to detect kill, near miss or miss information. The following weapons effects and feedback are provided the trainees or instructor: weapon recoil, weapon bang, magazine action, automatic or single shot, lead and elevation if applicable, audio scoring feedback using a computer generated voice, reaction time measurement, movement of weapon and a hard copy score.
