Abstract

A simulated shooting device (10) comprises a portable body (12) in the shape of a hunting rifle with a barrel (18) extending outwardly at an operatively front end (20) of the device. The device includes a digital camera unit (34) mounted on the body and activated by a trigger (50) to take a photograph of a target object at which the barrel and camera unit are pointing when the trigger is pulled, the photograph being stored in a digital memory (102) in the body for later retrieval and analysis. A recoil mechanism (52) is provided in the body to generate recoil when the trigger is pulled, and a gunshot emulator (54) generates the sound of a gunshot. A laser rangefinder (40, 42) is provided to measure the distance to the target object at the moment the trigger is pulled. Other components are also activated upon pulling of the trigger, including a GPS unit (104), receiver for a heart rate monitor (106), wind speed meter (108), digital magnetic compass (110) and temperature sensor (112), so as to store information associated with the photograph on the digital memory for later retrieval and analysis.
