“We started AttackSense after recognising that no system
existed that provided reactive training targets which could
monitor shooter performance and function in a representative
environment. With our experience gained from the drone
industry we developed a reliable wireless target system that
could operate in any environment, with the levels of robustness
needed to provide long service life in the harsh use case targets
find themselves in. It was critical to us that the system would
operate using a tablet computer, to provide the level of detail
we wanted to track shooter performance over time and to
support future proofing, something our customer enjoy with
frequent updates supporting new features and shooter tracking.
As the system grows and our user base increases, we’re
currently re-investing 100% of our revenues back into the
product. This is allowing us to innovate with R&D in software to
improve the features and use cases we support, and in hardware
with different target designs for new environments as well as
companion units for start / stop indication, movement sensing,
flow control and improved immersion. Close engagement
with our customers is allowing us to improve the product and
find new directions to move in all the time, it’s an extremely
exciting time for us as it is for the industry in general.”

Updates and system durability/longevity improvements are
already being introduced thanks to that oh-so-importanmt user
feedback, and I have every confidence that the team behind
these targets aren’t resting on their laurels and they’ve already
intimated that there is quite a lot more to come in the future.
I’ll be using the AttackSense system for personal training
and also as a testbed for new 6mm training weapons that we
see coming onto the market; this is 100% a focus for the PMCI
team at both SHOT and IWA 2020and I look forward to reporting
back further in due course!
If you’re amongst “the enlightened” who see 6mm training
as an extremely useful tool in your box then rest assured you’ll
find the very latest news here in PMCI, and we’ll be working
with AttackSense closely as we develop and champion this.
