A mobile application available on the Android operating system that allows users to measure the time elapsed between successive shots fired from a firearm. These applications typically utilize the device’s microphone to detect the sound of gunfire and record the intervals between each shot. They are used primarily in firearms training and competition settings.
The utility of such applications lies in providing objective performance metrics to shooters. By quantifying the speed and consistency of their shooting cadence, individuals can identify areas for improvement in their technique and equipment handling. Historically, dedicated hardware devices fulfilled this function, but mobile applications offer a more portable and cost-effective alternative, leveraging the ubiquitous nature of smartphones.
