NLETC works with the Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) to identify dual-use technologies, and works with its advisory council to prioritize projects and set standards for equipment. The projects are developed and tested in private laboratories and then NIJ analyzes the data and disseminates the results. NLETC develops less-than-lethal technologies including sticky foam, strobe-and-goggle technology, backseat airbags, remote-control barrier strips, and a fleeing vehicle tagging system. Officer safety remains a top priority, and NLETC sponsors projects designed to save officers' lives such as the smart gun and personnel monitoring systems. Investigative tools for law enforcement include the magic wand and the smart car. 4 notes
