Abstract
A device for detecting a target and for detonating an explosive device includes a displaceable trigger wire attached to a movable or deformable trigger member, and a detection device for detecting movement or deformation of the trigger member. In the case of a movable trigger member, movement of the trigger wire causes movement of the trigger member, and the detection device generates a detonation signal in response to the movement to cause detonation of the explosive. In the case of a deformable trigger member, movement of the trigger wire causes deformation of the trigger member, and the detection device generates a detonation signal in response to the deformation that causes the explosive device to detonate. The detection device may be located in the explosive device, with the trigger wire extending out away from the explosive device. Alternately, the detection device may be located in a support member located apart from the explosive device.
