Police training simulation in collaboration with the University of Minnesota

📝 Student Team: 1 project manager, 2 developers, 4 artists, 1 narrative writer, 1 audio engineer, 2 voice actors

🏫 Advised by: Dr. Robert LiKamWa

Introduction

This training simulation provides students with insights about career paths in criminal justice by re-creating situations that may arise in a traffic stop scenario and a domestic call scenario.

The immersive experience places the student in the role of a police officer in a hyper realistic environment including a traffic stop and domestic call. These immersive challenges build their decision-making skills through empathy and awareness.

The simulation is built with Unreal Engine 5 and metahuman characters and realistic art styles to recreate the Minnesota environment familiar to local students. It encourages users to practice responsible confrontation with emotional intelligence in each situation depending on the response of others and the information they gather in the immediate environment.
