Intelligent rounds are making guns more lethal than ever before

The PGF (Precision guided firearms) is the newest military technology in the world. The new integrated circuit technology along with the fast programming ability are turning even the rifle and pistol caliber ammunition into smart guided projectiles. And that will increase the firepower and accuracy of weapons.

Things like small guided ammunition are giving the new power for the anti-aircraft guns, and that kind of thing is making increasing the effectiveness of anti-aircraft and other kinds of systems. The intelligent weapon systems can operate along with drones and manned systems, which are pointing the targets to intelligent weapons.

The new type of "fire and forget ammunition can revolutionize the battlefield. It can use also in rifles, cannons, and aircraft cannons.

The "Tracking point" rifles are basing technology where the computer would launch the rifle and aim the bullet to target by using the laser-pointer. But it's possible to make the more advanced systems, where the rifle would input the target data to the ammunition. Which allows that the ammunition to act as the "fire and forget"mode.

The fire and forget bullet can use the miniaturized TV- or infrared camera. When the operator will point the rifle to the target, the system takes an image of it. And then that image will load to the miniaturized computer of the bullet. That allows it to fly to the target without using laser-aiming. That image can also be taken by every other digital camera and drive to the computer's memory by using remote systems. And that will guarantee the hit to target.

The smart ammunition can load to the M-61 "Vulcan" Gatling gun, which gives that cannon higher accuracy, and in some visions the 30 mm. gun ammunition of the GAU-8 "Avenger" can equip with intelligent technology. That is used in the "Tracking point" systems, which can use the automatized launch, aiming, and tracking systems along with the intelligent ammunition.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low. The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away. When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field. An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate. AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
