Abstract
A manworn laser detection system is provided for use in a multiple integrated laser engagement system (MILES). A plurality of laser detectors are carried by a harness adapted to be worn by a person for receiving a laser bullet hit from a weapon equipped with a laser small arms transmitter (SAT). An amplifier on the harness is connected to the laser detectors on the harness for amplifying a first electrical output signal of the laser detectors. A first optical coupling on the harness is connected to the amplifier for emitting optical signals representative of the amplified first electrical output signal of the laser detectors. An electronics assembly is adapted to be carried by the person and includes second optical coupling adapted to be mated with the first optical coupling for receiving the optical signals and generating a second electrical output signal representative thereof. A controller in the electronics assembly is provided for decoding a MILES code embedded in the second electrical output signal. The electronics assembly also includes a display and/or audio output device for providing an indication to the person of the decoded output signal. This indication may be the fact that the person has been 'hit' , the player identification of the person that fired a SAT equipped weapon, and the type of weapon that scored the hit.
