Abstract: Several examples of a navigation disruption device and methods of using the same are described herein that use real-time, low-cost computation to generate conflicting/competing signals to actual Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals. For example, the novel, hand-held navigation disruption devices described herein (1) generate signals from a simulated satellite constellation, wherein the signals from the simulated satellite constellation conflict/compete with signals from one or more actual satellite constellations, and (2) transmit the signals from the simulated satellite constellation(s) towards an unmanned vehicle. The signals from the simulated satellite constellation(s) cause the unmanned vehicle to compute an incorrect position, which in turn disrupts its ability to navigate and operate effectively.

Abstract: The devices, systems, and methods described herein are directed to a manual and assisted targeting system integrated into a weapon control system that includes dual triggers. One trigger is fully manual and is always operational. The second trigger is electronically controlled and is linked to aiming sensors, targeting sensors, and a controller comprising firing control logic. The firing control logic calculates an aim goal, based at least partially on location information pertaining to the target, and determines when the difference between the aimpoint of the weapon and the aim goal is below a threshold. In response to this determination, a control signal is sent to a trigger actuator to fire the weapon.

Abstract: Several examples of a dual remote control and crew-served weapon station are described herein that uniquely provide different operating modes, any one of which can be quickly and efficiently selected based on outputs from various system sensors (e.g., switches and buttons). For example, the weapon station may operate in a mode in which the weapon is remotely steered and fired (e.g., remote controlled). The weapon station may also operate in different modes in which the weapon is aimed and fired by a local operator (e.g., crew-served stabilized or full manual). The weapon station may also operate in a safety mode, which is selected when no operator is sensed by a local operator sensor and/or a remote operator sensor. In some examples, the safety mode includes utilizing safety equipment to lock the pointing direction of the weapon and secure the weapon from firing.

Abstract: Several examples of a dual remote control and crew-served weapon station are described herein that uniquely provide at least three operating modes, any one of which can be quickly and efficiently selected based on outputs from various system sensors (e.g., switches and buttons). For example, the first operating mode is a mode in which the weapon is remotely steered and fired (e.g., remote controlled). The second operating mode is a mode in which a weapon cradle is stabilized by a gimbal and the weapon is aimed and fired by a local operator (e.g., crew-served stabilized). The third operating mode is a mode in which the cradle is manually steered and the weapon is fired by the local operator (e.g., full manual).
