Too bad there's no good payable intersection of software dev, video games, and three position bullseye rifle. Hah :(

Actually there is. When my daughters were on the Airgun 10 meter team (recent national champs), I spent some time investigating how to create a low-cost SCATT system using a relatively inexpensive laser with 3D-printed mount, USB connected cameras, and OpenCV. Something kids could use in a hallway at home vs. the range. The solution was very feasible as I got to the point of mocking it up and testing it. Daughters decided to drop shooting, and other side-dev projects took over. But you sound like you might love doing this. Cheers.
Being a developer and watching a lot of movies, I should pivot into making Apple TV apps because most of them are really bad.
Sounds like VR is the answer!
