METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRAINING POLICEMEN

摘要

The present apparatus provides an accurate simulation of the environment in which a police trainee may later find himself during continuance of an emergency condition, such as a confrontation with a killer. The apparatus fills the void between traditional training and actual field conditions, and permits the trainee to interact with the simulated environment in a highly realistic manner. The apparatus includes a plurality of film projectors and tape decks, a screen on which the films are projected, sensing devices to determine whether or not the trainee has fired his gun or has hit a predetermined portion of the screen, logic and control devices interrelated to the film and adapted to cause different operations of the projectors and tape decks in accordance with the actions of the trainee, and simulating devices intended to make the trainee feel that he himself has been hit by a bullet in the event that his prior performance was unsatisfactory.
