Equipment use is simulated so single or restricted use items such as ammunition, Conducted Energy Weapon (CEW) cartridges and batteries are not wasted, saving costs for training sessions. Firearms, CEW and PAVA/CS can all be simulated within the system. More training for lower costs is the ultimate aim.
Additional cost savings are driven through using virtual characters (both pre-scripted and fully instructor controllable) for detailed multi-actor scenarios, saving costs of expensive safety staff and role-players.
Denied environments are available within the system, reducing the need for expensive construction of locations or hire of venues.
Depending on the size of the force, saving just 3-6 CEW training cartridges per officer, per year makes the system cost neutral or better on that area of Police training alone.
