Articulated Training Manikin for Professional Simulation

Realistic Articulated Manikins for Professional Training and Simulation

Originally developed for stunt sequences and artist replacement in Film and Television, our articulated human-form manikins are increasingly being explored for professional training, simulation and testing.

Professional Training

Specialist Testing

We have already supported a number of non-film projects, while recent enquiries have included police training, hazardous-materials exercises and organisations preparing annual evacuation drills.

A more representative alternative to a rigid training dummy

Many conventional training dummies are primarily designed to provide weight. Stunt Action Manikins combine a realistic human appearance with fully articulated movement, allowing them to be positioned, carried, recovered and handled in a more representative way.

Their natural articulation can help organisations reproduce some of the practical challenges involved in moving and managing a person during a training exercise. Their realistic appearance may also make a scenario feel more credible to participants, although the effectiveness of any exercise will depend on its wider design, instruction and objectives.

Potential training and testing applications

Our manikins may be suitable for applications including:

• emergency evacuation exercises;

• police and public-safety training;

• hazardous-material and protective-equipment exercises;

• rescue and recovery scenarios;

• medical and casualty simulation;

• equipment, vehicle and product testing.

  
  

Bodies, heads, skin tones and other characteristics can be configured from our available stock, depending on the requirements of the exercise.
