Patent ID: 11619465

Abstract:
A draw alerting weapon holstering device for reducing weapon confusion includes a holster into which a weapon is insertable. The holster can be engaged either to a user or to an article that is engaged to the user. A housing is selectively engageable to or is integral to the holster. A detector, a speaker, a vibrator, and a microprocessor are engaged to the housing, with the latter two being positioned in the housing. A battery is selectively engageable to the housing. The detector can detect a weapon that is positioned in the holster. The microprocessor is operationally engaged to the battery and is communicatively engaged to the vibrator, the speaker, and the detector. The detector signals the microprocessor upon drawing of the weapon from the holster, whereupon the microprocessor selectively signals the speaker and the vibrator to broadcast an audible alert and to initiate a vibratory alert, respectively.
