Hi all, I was hoping someone would have some experience building a precision laser target, My goal is to build a larger version of the LaserLyte Laser Training Target. The idea is to cut down the weekly cost of ammo and be able to practice indoors in a cool environment.
I thought about using a bank of small photo sensors placed into a honeycomb lattice so that only the brief laser light would trigger it.
The problem I am having is how to register each sensor so that I can display an led in the same target location.
Do you know of another sensor type that can register the exact point at which the beam hits ?
The idea would be to get the sensor to read with a tolerance of 9-12mil.
I have found commercial product but there price is way out of my range $4-5k
I appreciated any feedback.
Thanks
