Total recoil? Gun simulator targets army and sofa warriors
The pair created the gun simulator while working in a technology incubator in the US city of New Orleans.
The company next door was developing visuals for military training exercises. It suggested making an electronic method for gun kickback simulation, to replace the normal gas-driven, pneumatic method, explains Mr Monti. The electronic method means gas cylinders don't need to be continually replaced, potentially bringing efficiency savings.
"It's awfully fast," he marvels in his Southern drawl.
"You can deliver slight kicks, heavy kicks, shakes, vibrations, the whole gamut."
