“Universities across the country continue to see T3 products as a security solution, and we are experiencing further penetration into the university security marketplace,” stated Ki Nam, CEO of T3 Motion. “With rising crime rates and tight budgets a common theme for US universities, campus security initiatives are greatly benefitted by the tactical and cost-saving benefits of T3 ESVs. The T3 Series fits perfectly with SLU’s security requirements, providing an efficient, clean-technology solution for SLU’s community policing approach, tripling the range of each DPSSS officer.”
DPSSS officers patrol SLU property and monitor university buildings for safety and security issues. In the past, the department's officers have patrolled the campus’ 234 acres of pedestrian walkways on foot and by bicycle, typically pedaling six to eight miles each day on patrol. The T3 Series ESVs can travel up to 25 miles on a single charge, and are field-swappable for 24-hour patrol capabilities.
DPSSS works to provide a safe campus for SLU students, faculty, staff and visitors using a community-based approach that focuses on education, communication and crime prevention. Patrols are carried out throughout campus twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
