Casualty and Live Roleplayer Moulage training provides cost effective, immersive training for Military Field Medics, First Responders, Triage Nurses and other emergency response scenarios. Realistic training for Mass Casualty (MASCAL) and unusual casualty situations, in a live environment, enhances the ability of medical personnel to respond accurately and effectively to the situations they find themselves in.

TACT’s range of robotic mannikin and lifelike moulage capabilities, allows medical personnel to feel and act as if they are in real life emergency. The resulting training stress created by our immersive solutions ensures high quality training for any scenario.

Moulage
Our moulage services include lifelike, anatomically correct limbs, and the creation of in-situ wounds, lacerations and burns on live casualty role-players. Our moulage capabilities are able to replicate sucking chest wounds, arterial bleeds, intestinal evisceration and internal bruising. TACT utilizes technologies developed in Hollywood for various Scify movies and popular TV shows, in order to create fully immersive medical emergencies.

Feedback from military personnel compare our moulage services to the most realistic training they have received since operating “in country.”

Manikin’s
Our Robotic Manikin, provide the additional advatange of being able to actually perform operations, incisions and sutures on a reactive patient. Using a remote control, Trainers/OCT’s are able to change the facial reactions, dilate the eyes, move the patients body/arms/legs, and in fact speak (or react) on behalf of the patient, to enhance the immersive training for their students.

This technology allows patients to be awoken during a surgery, and/or react to key indicators, incorrect diagnoses or even the insertion of a needle.
