Each trainee in an exercise wears a SenseSuit, which is composed of a material that can detect a hit from a rubber bullet, paint ball projectile, or the blunt force of a taser modified to deliver projectiles without any electrical charge. Each trainee wears a numbered suit that identifies him/her in the exercise movements that are tracked by the trainer/system operator. A database of trainee movements is created for subsequent display for debriefing and instruction. Once each SenseSuit has been activated, each trainee's icon will appear on the tracking system topographical map in the corresponding team color. During the confrontation exercise, an officer can resort to whatever weapon he/she deems sufficient to resolve an encounter appropriately. If a projectile strikes a player, the operator can determine whether the hit was lethal or superficial. This new technology facilitates tracking the process and outcomes of various scenarios in which officers respond to simulations of real-life encounters, thus improving decisionmaking and skill in the use of weapons in the field.
