Troysgate Human Performance Systems, LLC located in Lenoir North Carolina.

Developed by Randy W. Martin retired law-enforcement officer.

The Opportunity Offered at Troysgate:

Troysgate is a unique facility and provide capabilities found at no other site in the United

States. It is both a highly effective center for human testing in life and death situations

and a laboratory that allows neuroscience instrumentation that provides insights into the

neural underpinning of these highly stressful scenarios.

Troysgate has’ created a proprietary, patented technology and related learning technique

that allows for more realistic live fire deadly force situations than any other deadly force

training method currently available. The system (Transporter) employs an optical illusion

that will immerse the trainee in an ultra-realistic situation with real humans and fully armed

adversaries. Compelling evidence gathered at Troysgate suggests that the Transporter

system can produce physical and neurological reactions in participants that are highly

correlated with that produced in individuals in actual live fire situations, unlike any other

training aid.

Individuals who have been in deadly force situations and then exposed to the Troysgate

Method confirm that it produces the same feelings for them as did the actual event.

Participants experiencing PTSD reported that taking part in the conditioning helped to

alleviate some of their symptoms. The Transporter provides an unparalleled opportunity

for researchers studying deadly force situations, life-and-death events, PTSD, the

underlying causes of inappropriate police shootings, and other related issues.

Over 18,000 people have benefited from the exposure to date, including experienced

military, police, and federal law enforcement personnel supporting national and

international needs. The US Secret Service has contracted with Troysgate to include the

Troysgate Transporter Systems in the development and implementation of their use of

deadly force techniques taught at their training facility outside Washington, DC.

Troysgate provides an unmatched opportunity to gather significant amounts of data on

the behavior of cortical brain networks during intense live-fire situations. This offers a

capability that can help to identify the neural correlates of individual and group responses

to life and death situations. This is available at no other facility.

Troysgate Operational Specialists and Researchers are particularly interested in

conducting human performance assessments through exercises with live-fire

neuroscience feedback.
