Abstract
A system for providing discharge monitoring of a firearm includes an event detection module, a signal processing module and a trigger pull sensor assembly. The event detection module has at least one sensor that senses an acceleration and generates an acceleration signal. The signal processing module receives the acceleration signal. The signal processing module is configured to determine whether the acceleration signal is a discharge event and generate an event detection signal based on the determination and is configured to maintain a shot count of the firearm based on the determination that the event detection signal is a discharge event. The trigger pull sensor assembly senses mechanical movement of a trigger of the firearm and communicates a trigger actuation signal to the signal processing module corresponding to a position of the trigger. The event detection signal is further based on the trigger actuation signal.
