Patent attributes
The spherical rolling explosive ordnance is a bomb having a substantially spherical shaped structure that includes a hard outer shell and a shock absorbing outer layer. The spherical shaped structure has a hollow inner core that is symmetrically disposed about an axial center of the structure. Within the hollow inner core are a plurality of mutually orthogonal motion sensors and a computing device. The sensors are electrically coupled to the computing device which accepts sensor outputs to process a plurality of motion profile samples. An explosive charge is distributed between the shell and the core. A fuse mechanism within the explosive charge is electrically coupled to a primary arming device. The primary arming device is armed responsive to the predetermined criteria of the motion profile samples. Arming the arming device causes the fuse to be ignited to provide detonation of the ordnance device.
