At the Mobile City Council meeting Tuesday morning, there’s a proposal to buy virtual reality headsets for officers. The tech would be used to simulate high-risk scenarios involving people with mental illnesses.
In the simulation, law enforcement is given three options. When they click their response, the simulation either intensifies or calms based on the answer. If a different response is preferred, there’s no harm no foul in the VR world.“We can’t replace real-world scenarios, but when we are trying to train, we need to come as close as possible to real-world scenarios or crises,” said Commander Curtis Graves with MPD.
