The Mantis X of your choice works that simply
Assemble the device
Mount the MantisX on the Picatinny / Weaver rail on your handgun. Works with Live Fire, Dry Fire, Airsoft and CO2.
Connect your smartphone
Install the Mantis X app. Switch on the Mantis X and then pair your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth 4.0.
Collect your data
Evaluate your shooting performance, identify areas for improvement, and track your progress over time.
Analyzes every shot
MantisX detects every shot you fire, analyzes the movement of the weapon during the trigger pull, and assigns each shot a value that indicates the deviation from the target position.
Promotes improvement
Based on firearm movement patterns, MantisX identifies areas for improvement and provides coaching that improves your mechanics, scoring and precision.
Tracks your performance
MantisX tracks all your shooting exercises and creates useful reports to help you identify your shooting trends, measure your progress and set appropriate improvement goals.
This is how the Mantis X gives you feedback
Rating
Each shot is scored based on how far away from the targeted position you are during the trigger pull. The perfect score is 100 (basically impossible unless you were clamped in a vise).
Direction
With every shot, MantisX detects the direction of the barrel movement during the trigger pull. If you tend to shoot left, the left sector on the wheel will light up. After a few shots, the training device will display the pattern of your movement.
Suggestion
MantisX analyzes a single shot or a group of shots and gives you suggestions on how to improve your shooting mechanics. Read the coaching tips to learn what to focus on for the next round of shooting.
