    Abstract: A magazine for a firearm is described. The magazine may include a magazine housing comprising a recess at a front wall of a magazine housing top portion facing a trigger bar of the firearm. The magazine may further include a locking unit configured to move between a locked position and an unlocked position. The magazine may further include a radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader disposed in the magazine housing. The RFID reader is configured to detect presence of a wearable device in proximity to the trigger bar. The magazine may further include a control unit configured to control locking unit movement based on inputs from the RFID reader. The control unit may be configured to move the locking unit from the locked position to the unlocked position when the RFID reader detects presence of the wearable device in proximity to the trigger bar.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and techniques for determining whether a user is holding a gun. The gun may include a sensor, such as a laser proximity sensor, a capacitive proximity sensor, a load cell, an accelerometer, or a biometric sensor, and the gun may determine whether a user is holding the gun based on an output generated by the sensor. A processor housed in the gun may identify activation of a proximity sensor, determine that a user is holding the gun based on the activation of the proximity sensor, and perform an action in response to determining that the user is holding the gun. The action performed by the processor may include performing a boot procedure, performing a health check procedure, visually indicating state information about the gun, audibly indicating state information about the gun, or tactilely indicating state information about the gun.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided, wherein a device is attachable to or integrated in a firearm and includes a plurality of sensors that are each configured to sense a respective attribute of the firearm or of an environment surrounding the firearm, and are further configured to provide corresponding signals based on sensing the respective attribute. The systems, devices, and methods may be configured to determine an event from among a plurality of events based on the corresponding signals provided by the plurality of sensors. Systems that include the device may record event data and transmit the event data to various user systems for situational awareness, record keeping, training, and other organizational or legal-process purposes.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems, devices, and techniques that can be implemented at a gun, such as an electromechanical gun. The gun may include a barrel located within a slide and a cylindrical spring enveloping the barrel. The barrel may be configured to act as a guide rod for the cylindrical spring, and the cylindrical spring may be configured to bias the slide in a forward battery position. The gun may include an electronic component such as an energy store, a processor, or a circuit board, located under the barrel and forward of the trigger when the gun is in an upright position. The gun may include a physical transmission medium that electronically couples the electronic component with an additional electronic component located rearward of the trigger, and the physical transmission medium may be at least partially encapsulated by a trigger guard.

    Abstract: An automated weapons system is comprised of a human transported weapon for use by a person. The weapon is comprised of a barrel, a targeting subsystem, a drone weapons subsystem, a computational subsystem, positioning means, and. a firing subsystem. The barrel is for propelling a fired munitions aimed towards an area of sighting. The targeting subsystem identifies a chosen target in the area of sighting. The drone weapons subsystem, has communications with the human transported weapons subsystem. The targeting subsystem utilizes communications with the drone weapons subsystem. The computational subsystem is responsive to the targeting subsystem, for determining where the chosen target is and where the barrel needs to be aimed so that the munitions will strike the chosen target. The positioning means, adjusts the aim of the munitions responsive to the computational subsystem. The firing subsystem fires the fired munitions at the chosen target responsive to the positioning means. In one embodiment, the drone further has munitions with positioning and firing capability thereupon, and, the computational subsystem determines where the target is and where the drone needs to be located in order to aim the munitions to strike the chosen target.
