Acron Aviation PatrolSim™ Series 8 Law Enforcement Simulator

The PatrolSim™ Series 8 by Acron Aviation is a purpose-built law enforcement driving simulator designed to meet the demands of police officer training and certification. This advanced system delivers hands-on, scenario-based instruction in a safe, immersive environment—allowing officers to practice pursuit driving, emergency response, and situational judgment without risking lives or vehicles. With accurate vehicle modeling and dynamic response scenarios, PatrolSim™ builds safer, more prepared officers through repetition, feedback, and experience.

Developed to simulate the performance and feel of patrol vehicles, the PatrolSim™ system allows cadets and officers to navigate high-pressure driving situations like PIT maneuvers, urban traffic stops, and high-speed chases. With full control over weather, time of day, and vehicle conditions, instructors can create and customize scenarios that reinforce critical thinking, defensive driving, and split-second decision-making. Whether in an academy setting or used for departmental refreshers, PatrolSim™ delivers consistent training without tying up cruisers or increasing liability.

  • Critical Decision-Making: Practice real-world law enforcement driving under simulated stress
  • Realistic Scenarios: Includes pursuits, traffic stops, DUI, patrol routes, and PIT maneuvers
  • Accident Reduction: Reduce preventable crashes and improve officer judgment on the road
  • Fuel and Maintenance Savings: Keep patrol vehicles on the road while training safely indoors
  • After-Action Reviews: Review performance with synced video and simulation data
  • Driver Confidence: Track progress with objective feedback to build skills and reduce liability
  • Flexible Setup: Available for fixed-site or mobile training trailer with onboard classroom

PatrolSim™ 8 features a modular, ergonomic simulator design that closely replicates real patrol vehicle driving compartments. Trainees interact with authentic controls and instrumentation, reinforcing muscle memory and situational awareness during every exercise.

  • Touchscreen interface for controlling scenarios and training settings
  • Instructor Operator Station (IOS) with full access to objectives, scoring, and lesson management
  • Glass Console with quick-switch control over vehicle types, weather, and time of day
  • Glass Dash reconfigures to simulate various law enforcement vehicle dashboards
  • Scenario Builder Tool to develop or modify custom exercises for agencies
  • Vehicle and environment libraries include diverse urban, rural, and mixed terrain
  • 4K-ready LED LCD display system with up to 250° field of view
  • Optional over-the-shoulder monitors for backing, spatial awareness, and tactical maneuvers
  • Simulates patrol vehicles, SUVs, and unmarked units with accurate size, weight, and handling
  • Validated vehicle dynamics and 21-parameter behavior modeling
  • Force-loaded steering to mimic tire blowouts, hard braking, or curb strikes
  • Authentic law enforcement cab layout with seat, steering, pedals, and shifter
  • Customizable weather (rain, fog, snow, ice) and light conditions (day, night, twilight)
  • Environments range from city centers to rural highways and desert roads
  • 5.1 surround sound mimics road, engine, siren, and traffic noise

PatrolSim™ 8 includes instructor-focused tools that allow trainers to monitor performance, adjust scenarios in real time, and review outcomes with trainees. These tools support objective feedback, skills assessment, and continuous improvement throughout law enforcement driver training programs.

  • Real-time instructor monitoring and control
  • Replay and after-action review capabilities
  • Performance metrics related to speed management, braking behavior, collisions, and compliance
  • Customizable training scenarios aligned with agency policies and procedures

Replay Studio™ After-Action Review Software enables instructors to conduct structured post-session evaluations using synchronized replay of simulator data and scenario events. This allows trainers to analyze driver behavior, decision-making, and situational awareness during each exercise, reinforcing learning through immediate visual feedback.

Replay Studio™ capabilities include:

  • Synchronized playback of simulation scenarios and event timelines
  • Interactive 3D scene views for enhanced situational analysis
  • Review of driving performance indicators such as speed, braking, and vehicle control
  • Event-based navigation to quickly access critical moments and infractions
  • Support for instructor-led debriefing, coaching, and classroom discussion

The PatrolSim™ 8 system is engineered for reliable operation in training facilities, academies, and mobile training environments. Specifications support long-term use, networked instruction, and scalable deployment across multiple simulators.

  • Standard power and voltage requirements suitable for training labs
  • Operating temperature and humidity ranges designed for indoor facilities
  • Compact simulator footprint for efficient classroom integration
  • Network connectivity for instructor stations, performance tracking, and updates
  • Law enforcement academies
  • In-service and remedial driver training
  • Pursuit policy training and evaluation
  • Emergency vehicle operations courses (EVOC)
  • Municipal, state, and federal agency training programs

We work with law enforcement agencies and training organizations to configure, deploy, and support PatrolSim™ 8 Driving Simulator solutions based on facility requirements, training goals, and budget considerations.
