HMDS Features

  • Small footprint; highly portable and will fit on a standard desktop found in most office spaces
  • Quick set-up; closed-case to ready-to-train in less than 30 minutes
  • Can be reconfigured to run any driver training objective that is included in the VCTS Suite, including C-IED training and route clearance training
  • Same interface and terrain databases as in VCTS, same explosive hazards detection library
  • Provides a seamless transition from HMDS DT to VCTS to CTC Surrogate VMMDs to operational VMMDs
  • Immersive training environment including driving controls, Graphical User Interface display, HMDS remote power, e-stop, and marking pump controls for familiarization and sustainment of individual and collective skills
  • High-fidelity replication of system power up/power down, deployment and stowing
  • Calibration (Sky Shot), and detection
  • Upgradeable to match planned engineering changes (e.g., deep buried detection)

  • Capability to accept events in real-time to include addition, deletion and movement of threat objects by an instructor
  • Crosstrack display, Full Route History, Scroll bar, Functional Flat View, Cube Views, Distance Markers, Algorithm Mode Display, and 3 Meter Backup Functionality
  • Simulation of day/night, precipitation/dry, varying intensity of rain and snow, dirt, sand, paved, gravel, water, snow, conditions
    Replicates buried depth of objects, material characteristics of objects, and orientation of object.
  • Three warning tones for over speed, object detection, and system error or HMDS malfunctions.
    Wire Detection capabilities
  • Deployable, enables cross-training of additional operators during drills, Annual Training, or at CTCs

Crew and Collective Training

FAAC’s immersive simulator-based crew and collective training solutions provide real-world experiences, honing soldiers’ skills and judgment before they go anywhere near the field of operations. Our mission is to ensure that army personnel, whether a driver or an engineer, have the skills they need to minimize risks. Simulation training programs ensure that the trainee can operate collectively as a crew under any circumstance – whether in combat conditions or simply on patrol.

FAAC’s custom hardware/software simulation solutions allow you to easily create complex real-time scenarios, and for your trainees to experience them in an emotionally vivid way at a low cost and with no risk of injury. We’ve built simulators for a wide range of platforms using real/replica equipment with scenarios to practice everything from basic vehicle and system operation to complex, multi-stage, multiparty training exercises. This collective simulation training for crews provides a high-fidelity training environment for individuals and crews to train in a way that will translate into operational excellence in the field. Move beyond simple traditional training and provide your personnel with an advanced scenario-based training system.

Learn more about our HMDS Desktop Trainer

The HMDS Desktop Trainer uses the same software and touch screen interface as found on the VCTS and the operational HMDS, therefore, providing a seamless training capability. By design, the HMDS DT is easy to operate by unit personnel. Upon fielding, the BEB Route Clearance platoons will now have the ability to train VMMD operators on proper HMDS employment, operation, and detection of explosive hazards.
