Albany, GA Fire Department Takes Delivery on Doron Systems
for Complete Municipal Driver Training Program.
Binghamton, NY, May 2011
Doron Precision Systems of Binghamton, NY recently installed a two place driver training simulation system for the Albany Fire Department of Albany, GA. Albany FD took delivery of a 460Fire and 550LE simulator system with fire, EMS and law enforcement driving scenarios earlier this year. The Fire Department also procured a modular bus position for transit driver training applications. This installation puts the City of Albany in a unique position to exercise a variety of training options for municipal drivers.
As reported by FOX News 31 online of southwest Georgia, “The first time we put a driver in a seat now is on an emergency call, first time they’re ever driving in traffic with little or no experience there: That’s the way traditionally firefighters are trained,” said Albany Fire Department Chief Ron Rowe. “What this is going to be able to do is put them in situations where their cognitive skills will be elevated and improved, and once they get on the street they have more practice at what they’ve been doing, and it makes it safer for us as well as the public.” Read the complete FOX News report here.

SUNY Ulster Criminal Justice Program Thrives with Doron Driving Simulator.
Binghamton, NY, June 2010
Ulster Community College in Stone Ridge, NY has been utilizing Doron’s recently installed 550LE Driving Simulation System with great success. The 550LE System is equipped with the SkillTrak™ reaction testing software option and a law enforcement specific Defensive Driving Scenario Package. The 550LE provides a seamless Virtual World driving environment with urban, suburban, rural, industrial and interstate highways. The system enables SUNY Ulster to train police recruits and retrain existing emergency responders.
According to James Truitt, associate professor of criminal justice and Red Hook Chief of Police, “The benefits of this technology are truly life saving in nature. It is far better that young police officers in training and in-service police officers learn effective driving techniques here in a simulated environment than out on the streets of our communities.” You can read a full article and view two short videos published by The Daily Freeman about the SUNY Ulster program and the Doron 550LE here.

Enfield Fire Department Exercises FEMA Grant to Procure Doron Simulators.
Binghamton, NY, May 2010
Last year, the Enfield, CT Fire Department received a $400,000 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to purchase driving simulators to train its firefighters.

Doron Expands Involvement with School Bus Applications.
Binghamton, NY, September 2009
Doron Precision System, Inc. has solidified its position as the leader of school bus applications for the driver training simulation industry with a new installation for the Region VI Education Service Center in Huntsville, TX, just north of Houston. Region VI is using the system to train and certify new hires and remediation for existing school bus employees. Doron has been supplying simulation systems for driver training programs in Huntsville since 1979.
The Doron 550SchoolBus System includes both the Fox and Scenario Developer options. The Scenario Developer features a user friendly Microsoft Windows operating system and enables the easy creation of new scenarios and quick modification of existing ones.
