Virtuele War Room voor Wendbaar Politieoptreden
The Virtual War Room enables police teams to prepare for unexpected situations within a matter of hours. Using up-to-date 3D area data, colleagues work together to build a realistic tactical situation map, explore scenarios and train directly in VR or Mixed Reality, even from different locations. This feasibility study identifies the workflow needed to let operational staff create and use scenarios independently, taking into account the relevant conditions for responsible and safe use within the Netherlands Police context.

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.
SPOT - Simultaan Plaats Onderzoek Tool
CoVince Innovations B.V.'s solution turns simple video recordings into collaborative 3D environments. This lets multiple experts visit crime scenes simultaneously within two hours, from any location.
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.
Situational Awareness op elk moment, door iedereen
With Imagem NL B.V.'s innovation, users without specialist knowledge are able to independently create and explore a digital, photorealistic copy of a location. The location is based on up-to-date data such as drone footage, laser scans, 360° video, live feeds and administrative sources. Within this 3D virtual world, users can analyse, simulate and coordinate situations — think of line-of-fire and line-of-sight analysis, or working through 'what if' scenarios. This new information position enables them to create a realistic digital environment for preparation, coordination and action in both ad-hoc and planned situations. The result: faster decision-making, greater situational awareness, more efficient use of resources, and a safer working environment for officers on the street.
CGI Indoor Explorer
CGI Indoor Explorer provides situational awareness during first responder operations by using IX to create a single, integrated, shared view of the situation in real time and in 3D. First responders are equipped with a 3D sensor that tracks their position and maps their surroundings. This view is monitored remotely in real time, offering value to the police and, by extension, to the Netherlands. CGI Indoor Explorer is being developed at CGI as an innovation project. This feasibility study examines the commercial potential of this innovation and its operational value for the Netherlands Police. The aim is to close the gap between innovation and actual deployment.
