WRAP Holds Thought Leadership Discussion with Amazon Web Services Executive and Miami Police Chief on the Future of VR Training in Law Enforcement
August 25 2021 - 11:34AM
Wrap Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “WRAP”) (Nasdaq:
WRAP), a global leader in innovative public safety
technologies and services, released an interview featuring WRAP CEO
Tom Smith, Amazon Web Services Leader of Justice and Public Safety
Ryan Reynolds, and Miami Police Chief Art Acevedo during which they
discussed the Wrap Reality virtual reality (VR) training platform
and the potential positive impact of VR on law enforcement
training. The discussion can be viewed here.“With VR training, you
can train daily, and in as little as five to ten minutes a day, you
can really create well-trained officers with good instincts and
with good muscle memory,” said Chief Acevedo during the discussion.
“You're going to see, virtual reality is going to end up taking
most of the bandwidth in terms of how much training time is spent.
We're going to be able to give immediate feedback, and in the VR
environment, you're going to be able to see everything you did -
what you did wrong, what you did the right way, what you can do
better - to debrief and learn almost in real-time. This is
something that is here, and I think in the next 12 to 36 months, it
is going to be widespread, and I hope here at Miami PD that we're
going to be the front end of this wave, this revolution.”“The
inbound requests we are receiving from agencies for quotes and more
information about Wrap Reality reflect the demand for our platform
as we continue to develop new modules while strengthening its
functionalities with Amazon Web Services,” said Tom Smith. “We are
excited about the opportunity to help agencies amplify their
training in a way that’s effective and affordable.”WRAP recently
announced its collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to
enhance Wrap Reality’s law enforcement training platform through
AWS GovCloud (US).
