Patent ID: 7182015

Claim:
A multi-variable, multi-parameter projectile launching and testing device which comprises; a.) an elongated hollow acceleration tube having a firing end and an exit end; b.) firing means functionally connected to said firing end of said elongated acceleration tube, said firing means including a force-producing mechanism to create sufficient force to accelerate a projectile through said elongated acceleration tube; c.) heating means functionally connected to at least a portion of said elongated acceleration tube for temperature control of a projectile; d.) rotation means functionally connected to said elongated acceleration tube for rotating said acceleration tube; e.) first control means for variable control of said firing means; f.) second control means for variable control of said heating means; and, g.) third control means for variable control of said rotation means; and, h.) at least one microprocessor, and said first control means, said second control means, and said third control means are microprocessor controlled with said microprocessor; wherein a user may accelerate a projectile through said elongated acceleration tube with a pre-selected force, at a pre-selected temperature and with a pre-selected rate of rotation using said first control means, said second control means and said third control means.
