This video reviews the Aries System, a training tool developed by Augmented Technologies and integrated with the Stress Vest system. The Aries System is designed to simulate the stress of a real-world encounter by delivering electric shocks when a user attempts to reach for their firearm with a straight, non-dominant arm. It forces users to adopt a proper non-dominant hand draw and engagement technique under duress, emphasizing the importance of keeping the support arm out of the line of fire. The system continues to shock until the scenario is ended, mimicking prolonged stress.
