Shooter Localization in wireless acoustic sensor networks: experiments, design and algorithm implementation on a centralised gateway.

A feasibility study for a wireless network for shooter localization, using low cost microphones on motes performing muzzle blast and bullet shockwave detection with a computationally light Spectrogram approach, and a Zynq-based centralized controller which provides the localization. Design of the experimental setup, real data acquisition and analysis are provided, particularly a single sensor approach for range estimation has been implemente

DRONE DELIVERY OF CBNRECy – DEW WEAPONS Emerging Threats of Mini-Weapons of Mass Destruction and Disruption (WMDD)

Drone Delivery of CBNRECy – DEW Weapons: Emerging Threats of Mini-Weapons of Mass Destruction and Disruption (WMDD) is our sixth textbook in a series covering the world of UASs and UUVs. Our textbook takes on a whole new purview for UAS / CUAS/ UUV (drones) – how they can be used to deploy Weapons of Mass Destruction and Deception against CBRNE and civilian targets of opportunity. We are concerned with the future use of these inexpensive devices and their availability to maleficent actors. Our work suggests that UASs in air and underwater UUVs will be the future of military and civilian terrorist operations. UAS / UUVs can deliver a huge punch for a low investment and minimize human casualties.https://newprairiepress.org/ebooks/1046/thumbnail.jp
