About Accuracy Under Fire (AUFIRE)

Accuracy Under Fire (A.U.FIRE) offers advanced haptic feedback for police and military realism-based force-on-force training. Our system uses wearable TENS unit (E-stim) sleeves that enable instructors to remotely simulate the muscle-contracting effects of gunshot wounds or limb injuries. This injury simulator's immediate feedback delivers real consequences, pushing trainees to handle extreme stress, maintain tactical accuracy, and problem-solve under pressure in real-time. It allows them to practice fighting back effectively while injured. A.U.FIRE fosters stress inoculation and a survival mindset, while providing crucial experience in weapon handling, accurate return fire, and tourniquet application under critical conditions—preparing officers to perform confidently in a crisis.

Problem statement

The critical gap in reality-based training is that it simulates the impact of a hit, but not the debilitating injury. This leaves police and military personnel mentally unprepared for the shock, pain, and physical failure of a real wound, leading to cognitive overload, freezing, and poor decision-making in a crisis. Current training doesn't prepare them to "fight through" an injury while still under attack, creating a dangerous vulnerability. AUFIRE solves this by using haptic feedback to simulate true, limb-disabling effects, forcing trainees to build experience and resilience beforehand. This inoculates them against shock, ensuring they can maintain composure, perform critical tasks, and make effective decisions under the extreme stress of a real-world encounter, dramatically increasing their survivability.

Traction information

In the first year of sales, we have sold $ 800,000 worth of AUFIRE kits to 40 law enforcement agencies and law enforcement academies, including the US Marshals, the NY MTA, and the Georgia Public Safety Training Center (GPSTIC). Additionally, we have received confirmations of future purchases planned by the Los Angeles Police Department, the U.S. Air Force Security Forces, the U.S. Army, the West Point Simulation Laboratory, and the Navy SEALs units. AUFIRE is also being integrated into top training simulator companies, including MILO, TI Training, INVERIS, Dart Range, Bohiemia, Cole Engineering, and CESI. With these integrations, AUFIRE will be distributed much more quickly to numerous national and international law enforcement and military agencies.
