Taser International has been at the forefront of innovation in public safety technology. At the IACP Conference (International Association of Chiefs of Police), Taser highlighted their Axon brand, encompassing a suite of connected products from body cameras to evidence management with a unique and powerful Virtual Reality demonstration.

The goal was to place police chiefs in a real-life situation that their police officers face daily. With VR, Groove Jones could place them in a frightening, life-and-death situation as it unfolded around them.

It was riveting, powerful, and tense.

The experience begins with a simple police call and the question, “Is Today the Day?” As you drive up in your patrol car, you see an argument out on a front lawn. Neighbors are watching as a couple fights. Within seconds, the situation escalates, and the officers on duty are faced with some serious decisions.

The whole situation highlights Taser’s Axon technology, which gives law enforcement agencies the flexibility to operate with increased transparency and efficiency.

The VR experience launched at the conference along with a new Mobile App, Taser Insider, which included a special FastPass to the event. Once inside, Groove Jones implemented remote control technology that allowed Taser to have 25 police chiefs view the experience at the same time.
