Project Details
Abstract
This study is to measure the kinematic responses from recoil of gunshots on the shooters or
racks with inertial sensors. The measured data will be transferred into other data domains, such as
energy and tilting angle domains, and analyzed in both time and frequency domains to find out
the characteristics and build up the corresponding models of the responses. With the findings,
useful applications, such as: gunshot detection, gunshot direction identification, assessment of
gun shoot training, and the novel gun identification technology based on the kinematic
responses from recoil of gunshots, will be developed.
Most of the related studies on the recoil of gunshots were focus on the negative impacts of the
recoil, such as: the causing injuries, impacts on shooting performances, etc. However, in the
proposed study, the kinematic responses from recoil are studied and analyzed, the characteristics as
well as the modeling of the responses will be constructed, and useful applications from the
responses for the law officers will be developed accordingly. The proposed study is planned for 3
stages executed in 3 years. With the preliminary test and results, they indicate that the proposed
works in this study are all feasible and achievable.
With the achievements of this proposed research, they could offer the law officers more reliable
and timely methods through the information exchange and gain the real-time control of gun
firing site, evidence of gunshot counts and the directions of gun shootings for off-duty report,
novel gun identification technology, and shooting training assessment tools. These achievements
and applications could offer the law officers more powerful and more advanced gunshots and
gun identification technologies as well as more effective training assessment methods. These
could improve the effectiveness and gun related forensic science of the polices in Taiwan as well as
the capability of soldiers to protect the country.
