COLORADO SPRINGS Colorado Springs, city (1990 pop. 281,140), seat of El Paso co., central Colo., on Monument and Fountain creeks, at the foot of Pikes Peak; inc. 1886. It is a year-round resort and a booming military, technological, and commercial city. , Colo. -- Combat Training Solutions, Inc.

 training by supplying warfighters with powerful non-pyrotechnic simulators unmatched in both safety and effectiveness.

Until now, generating explosion effects for live training relied upon pyrotechnic devices - real explosives complete with all the inherent dangers and safety restrictions. As a result, safety concerns often trumped effective training because traditionally-used pyrotechnic devices were highly restrictive for the user.

Enter CTS's all new, Full Effect Audio Visual Non-Pyrotechnic Explosion Simulators. The concept is simple; air pressure, burst diaphragm diaphragm (dī`əfrăm'), term used to describe any of several large muscles, found in humans and other mammals, which separate two adjacent regions of the body. The most commonly known muscle of this class is the thoraco-abdominal diaphragm.  and smoke simulation powder. CTS Simulators range in size from small trip wire booby-trap devices and landmines to full-size, radio-controlled road-side IED simulators. These innovative products are safe for anyone to handle and operate in virtually any environment under virtually any condition.

The most effective characteristic of this CTS product line is permissibility of Direct Contact Training (DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) An algorithm that is widely used for data compression. Similar to Fast Fourier Transform, DCT converts data (pixels, waveforms, etc.) into sets of frequencies. The first frequencies in the set are the most meaningful; the latter, the least. ). Trainees are afforded a direct, high-impact consequence for mistakes made during situational awareness Situation awareness or situational awareness [1] (SA) is the mental representation and understanding of objects, events, people, system states, interactions, environmental conditions, and other situation-specific factors affecting human performance in  exercises. This translates into field soldiers arriving in theater better equipped to identify, react and destroy the threat.

Recently, the Department of Defense and Joint Forces Command ordered a wartime acquisition of CTS products, incorporating them into Convoy Training Centers around the world. The CTS customer base includes Department of Defense (all military branches), Homeland Defense, local and federal law enforcement agencies as well as our foreign allies. CTS has been highly successful in fielding its products as well as sustaining the new and re-supply demand generated by this success.
