It isn't every day you get to shoot at targets in a research lab. Researchers in the Human Factors and Ergonomics laboratory at CAVS are preparing to do just that. Law enforcement officers recruited from the local, regional, and state institutions are being invited to participate in a series of experiments taking place at the lab this spring. The officers are going to be asked to perform a number of tasks wearing different types of body armor and carrying different equipment.
