Arotech Simulation and Training Division’s IES
Interactive Training subsidiary announces that it recently extended a teaming
agreement with Live Sight Target Systems Inc. for exclusive rights to its
innovative 3D stereo target training technology for the development, production
and delivery of interactive 3D training scenarios and media for use on IES’s line of force-options simulators and firearms
training systems. Live Sights patent-pending 3D stereo anaglyph target
technology (U.S Patent Application No. 20080018859) will be leveraged by IES’s
in-house media division to create and deliver the industry’s only 3D simulator
training scenarios authorized by Live Sights for exclusive use with IES’s MILO Range Pro HD law enforcement and military
training systems.
Under this exclusive agreement, IES has already produced a full
line of interactive training scenarios in full high-definition stereoscopic 3D
video that include a wide range of topics such as armed response, domestic
disputes, EDP and suspicious persons, high-risk traffic stops, and first
responder situational scenarios. Using
high-impact 3D stereo anaglyph glasses provided to IES by Live Sight, trainees
using these scenarios on IES simulators will experience significantly enhanced
real-world distance and depth perception capabilities that greatly improve the
trainee’s ability to make correct determinations about threats and judgments
related to the proper use of force needed to resolve them.
“IES is pleased to have continue this
exclusive teaming agreement with Live Sight Target systems to offer their
stereo 3D firearms training technology on our simulation systems product line,”
noted Robert McCue, IES’s General Manager. “By incorporating this highly-regarded
training technology into our systems, IES is able to achieve a wider range of
functionality on our MILO Range Pro HD Interactive Simulators that will enhance
the readiness of any agency as they train to confront threats at home and
abroad,” said McCue. “IES is has been
developing and fielding industry-leading simulation training systems since 1994,
and we believe that the inclusion of Live Sight Target System’s proven 3D
firearms training technology into our systems will greatly enhance the training
experiences of officers using our simulators to a level unmatched in the
industry”.
Ralph Capone, President and CEO of Live Sight Target Systems
noted, “Live Sights is excited to continue our exclusive relationship
with IES. It is our opinion that having
the best simulation training systems in the industry operating with our 3D
training technology will save lives and reduce injuries to officers, and reduce
liability on the agency. As career
law-enforcement officers ourselves, Live Sight Targets believes we have no
higher calling than insuring that our patent-pending 3D technology will be
helping to save lives”.
