The Bots actually respond like a live AdversaryFor the gun enthusiasts that want more out of just shooting at paper targets or moving targets. How about moving robot targets that moves autonomously?

Enter Robotic Human-Type Targets from Australia's Marathon Targets, they're basically dummy mannequins on wheels with a computer embedded. The bots can be programmed to various scenario whether the bots is hit or not. The idea is to deploy human-looking dummies that can "look, move, and behave like people," with a degree of networked autonomy. For example, when one bot goes down in a hail of gunfire, the others can respond by heading for cover or regroup for a counter-attack. No joystick required. To further add functionality to the training, scenarios can be program into the robots whether its for a hostage situation to a couple tangos walking along the street from 200 yards out.
Some info on these Robot Targets:
My Robot Army is taking shape I see!
MUST WIN THE LOTTERY!
This would be so much fun!

Well thread has gone downhill with this reference to Democrats.
When the robots shoot back, let me know.
HA! Love it. Robots as dummycrats. They continue to short circuit after the election, after all. *BRZT* Corporations! *BZZZRT* Obamacare!
Love a good liberal meltdown!

With the substitution of B-27’s this would certainly add some interest to my local range - which has a paper-targets-only policy.
Well, turnabout is fair...

And it is even fun when they shoot...
