POLice Augmented Reality Intelligence System (POLARIS)
By applying Augmented Reality (AR) interfaces, Embedded Acoustics B.V. is enhancing the “situational awareness” of intervention units. The proposed solution combines a visual interface (AR glasses or helmet) with 3D audio. Information is projected onto the real environment both visually and audibly. Embedded Engineering develops robust interfaces of this kind, to date mainly for military applications. This work has shown how the right interface design can present information in a highly intuitive and effective way. Situational awareness increases significantly, while cognitive load is reduced. They are adapting the existing system to meet the requirements of relevant teams at the Netherlands Police.
Training Sandbox
The Training Sandbox is a hybrid IX platform that lets operational police officers independently create, adapt and share realistic scenarios within hours. A web editor makes it possible to quickly recreate ad-hoc situations and large-scale events, while a Unity package gives in-house development teams room to customise and expand the platform. It supports real-time intervention, learning analytics and multi-user collaboration within a single simulation. Built on a privacy-conscious architecture and guided by public values, the Sandbox aims to strengthen officers' practical skills, professional competence and mental resilience, cutting turnaround time from weeks to hours.
Handsfree Intelligence: De Mixed Reality Gedachtenkamer voor de Tactische Recherche
An AI-driven Mixed Reality application that supports tactical detectives in real time with investigation, scenario thinking and administrative tasks at a crime scene. The application combines MR and artificial intelligence, giving investigators a "thinking room" where they can visualise, mark and analyse evidence. This reduces the administrative burden and improves the quality and speed of investigative processes, contributing to more efficient law enforcement.
ASA (Augmented Situational Awareness assistent)
ASA is an augmented reality assistant that supports police officers with direct, contextual information in their field of view via AR glasses. Think visual markers for exits, colleagues, vehicles or danger zones, plus subtle warnings about people approaching from outside their line of sight. In situations involving smoke or poor visibility, ASA improves orientation through image processing. At the same time, officers can share live footage with the control room for better coordination. This feasibility study examines whether ASA is technically achievable, practical to deploy within the police organisation, and whether it helps officers on the street act more safely, quickly and with better information.
SIMplify-XR, een AI-gestuurde VR-trainingsomgeving
Improvive wants to help the Netherlands Police create training scenarios more quickly for approaching suspicious individuals at large-scale events. This should result in a training in VR or Mixed Reality. Until now, 3D environments and scenarios have been designed by specialists. Improvive wants to simplify this with an AI-driven design assistant, combined with existing digital tools. The AI assistant guides the creator step by step through designing a training. This way, the police can build scenarios that match real-world situations simply and independently.
Planning & Real-time IX Scenario Maker
PRISM is an AI-supported VR scenario builder that lets police officers with no technical background build and adapt realistic environments and scenarios. Using voice commands and simple building blocks, they can recreate past incidents and prepare for new situations, for example crowd control or threat scenarios. The tool drastically cuts the development time for XR training and makes it possible to share and reuse scenarios nationwide. In phase 1, the team is investigating the technical feasibility, user acceptance and economic viability of a proof of concept for this AI-driven IX scenario builder.
