Temple University Police Department has become the first university in the tri-state area to implement new simulator training Ti Technology.
Temple University is now the first university in the tri-state area to utilize a new training system called "Ti Technology."It provides 900 real-life scenarios for officers to respond to, along with dozens of different outcomes for each scenario."It could be anything from mental health, de-escalation, domestics, fights in a dorm, I mean you could go on and on the scenarios you have," said Dr. Jennifer Griffin, chief of the Temple University Police Department.
With three screens, projectors, and speakers, trainees have access to tasers, long guns, and handguns that use CO2 cartridges to emulate the same recoil officers get when using their real guns.Dr. Griffin says they will also be able to upload videos of the environment on and off campus to make the scenarios even more realistic, and it will serve as the hands-on component of their monthly training.
