SETCAN® - OTX Flashbox


	GET OFF THE “X“ The OTX™ Flashbox is designed to work with firearm simulators by providing feedback when the student has not moved off the “X” after a specified time period. It also assists in ensuring the student moves at least a full body position away from their previous location. The device works by sending a narrow width laser pulse to a belt being worn by the student that detects the laser pulse. If the belt is hit, it can deliver several methods of haptic feedback. The OTX™ Flashbox Most trainers refer to “getting off the X” as a tactical strategy involving moving from a static position so that you do not become an easy target in a gunfight. It is one of the hardest skills to train on the range for several reasons. First, safety parameters typically restrict how much movement can occur. Especially when other shooters are orientated on either side. Second, the movement tends to be trivial as the shooter has an overriding desire to stabilize their platform for the perfect shot. In essence, they cheat because they have not yet acquired the skills to move and shoot. SPEED/ACCURACY OR ACTIVATION But we don’t train to get off the X? No problem. A lot of trainers believe that speed and accuracy is lost by moving and we aren’t here to argue with trainers on which tactic is best, but instead offer a training solution for both. The OTX™ Flashbox also has the ability to deliver a room wide flash that will activate the belt regardless of whether the student moves or not. The flash can be tied to an event where the student has to hit the target a specific number of shots accurately before a defined time period. If the student performs as required the system will be prevented from flashing, if they don’t, the belt will be activated. OTX™ Product
