Location of Bullet on Target System - Acoustic Based Hit Identification and Analysis System (ABHIAS)

CSIR-NAL developed ABHIAS is an indigenous, cost effective electronic target training system for perfecting soldier marksmanship skills by accurately determining the location of bullet impact on the target during training. It works for all supersonic
and subsonic weaponry used by the Indian armed forces, paramilitary forces and police forces.

ABHIAS is an automated system to detect bullets using acoustic detection and localization of hits on target by acoustic time delay estimation methods. Real time and precise system, catering for individual to tactical level of exercise settings. System caters to almost all weapons including rifles and CQC weapons.

Indigenous design tailor made for Indian Armed Forces and Paramilitary Forces with high degree of ruggedisation to meet Mil Grade Standards. Configured out of COTS item to ensure low post sale maintenance cost.
