Abstract
A threat fire simulation system (40) for simulating a projectile impacting a user (26) includes an electrical impulse element (44) configured for physical contact with the user (26). A controller (42) is in communication with the electrical impulse element (44). The controller (42) enables receipt of a signal (54) for activating electrical impulse element (44) to deliver a non-disabling electrical pulse (46) to the user (26). The electrical pulse (46) simulates an impact of the projectile on the user (26).
Claims11
A method of threat training using a projectile simulation system comprising:
- mounting an electrical impulse element of said projectile simulation system in physical contact with a user, said electrical impulse element including a housing containing an impulse generator for generating a non-disabling electrical pulse and a pair of electrodes in electrical communication with said impulse generator;
- presenting a scenario as a video sequence on a screen of said projectile simulation system;
- determining a reaction by said user in response to a threat presented in said scenario;
- and
- selectively delivering said non-disabling electrical pulse to said user via said pair of electrodes in response to said reaction, said non-disabling electrical pulse simulating an impact of a projectile.
