System for gun simulator

The present invention relates to a simulated firearm system, and more particularly, to a simulated firearm system that fires a projectile such as a BB and detects a firing signal of the fired projectile and irradiates a laser.

As society develops, people are engaged in various leisure activities for reasons of health and hobbies, and the leisure activity population is gradually increasing. Among various leisure activities, in the case of survival games, the number of participants is gradually increasing from developed countries, and the market size is also increasing.

In the case of such a survival game, it is possible to obtain effects such as health improvement, stress relief, friendship promotion, and actual military training through a survival game between the simulated enemy and allies using a simulated firearm of a shape similar to a real firearm.

Conventionally, when a bullet such as a paint ball or BB bullet fired from a simulated firearm is hit by the Piagan, paints or sound marks are applied, and this situation is transmitted to the main server, and all other soldiers are killed. Or, if you take the flag of the opponent's flag, you can decide to win or lose. However, in the survival game using the paintball, the post-processing is cumbersome due to the paint on the human body or clothing, and in the case of using the BB, the speed of the BB shot from the simulated firearm is too strong to give a strong impact to the human body.
