TRAKR: The Autonomous Robotic Target That Challenges Your Aim
Story
Static targets are boring. Shooting at cans and paper targets doesn’t improve your reactive aim and gets repetitive fast. We wanted to bring the excitement of a dynamic, video-game-like challenge into the real world for hobbyists and competitive shooters alike.
Meet TRAKR (Tactical Robotic Autonomous Target), the smart robot that moves, reacts, and challenges you. Using built-in LiDAR, TRAKR intelligently navigates any open space, avoiding obstacles while on patrol. Its integrated impact sensors register hits from projectiles like Airsoft BBs, Nerf darts, or gel balls, triggering evasive maneuvers and sending real-time scoring to the companion app.
Stop shooting at boring targets. Start hunting the TRAKR.
Key Features
- Autonomous Navigation: Using its built-in LiDAR sensor, TRAKR intelligently patrols any open space, mapping and avoiding obstacles in real-time.
- Smart Hit Detection: Impact sensors on the chassis register hits and trigger programmable reactions, from flashing lights to a burst of speed.
- Multiple Game Modes: Use the companion app to select modes like “Patrol,” where TRAKR follows a set path, or “Evasive Action,” where it actively dodges after the first hit.
- Durable All-Terrain Design: A rugged, high-impact polymer chassis and powerful motors allow TRAKR to operate on carpet, grass, or pavement.

TRAKR is LIVE! The Target That Fights Back.
The moment is finally here. After countless hours of designing, coding, and 3D printing, we are so proud to launch the TRAKR campaign. Our mission was to create a target practice experience that is as fun and challenging as a video game, and we can\'t wait to share it with you. Thank you for being here on day one. Be sure to grab one of the "Early Bird" rewards before they\'re all gone. Your support will help us launch the first production run of the most advanced robotic target ever built. Let the hunt begin! -
