ACME Overview

ACME Worldwide Enterprises, Inc. is a Simulator and Training Company specializing in Motion Cueing technologies for Military and Commercial systems worldwide. Our patented dynamic motion seats and full-force machine gun trainers provide real-world sensations, cueing, and motion training for simulators. Since 1994 we’ve helped customers across the globe with unique training, technology, and simulator support services.

We design and produce unique, immersive training systems.  Our motion systems help crews in simulators train realistically and effectively for operations in the real world.  For example, our Gun Active Recoil (GAR®) machine gun trainers feature actual full-force recoil to help gunners train in simulators to anticipate and overcome the machine gun’s intense recoil so they’re effective shooters in the real world when lives might depend on them.  Our Dynamic Motion Seats (DMS) in Sims replicate the sensations felt when operating land, air, or sea vehicles so crews train in the actual environment they’ll feel in the real world.  And realistic motion is critically important for learning to recognize malfunctions or emergencies where a problem, such as a weapon impact, is felt first and crews must immediately respond.

• ACME products are truly worldwide:  We’ve supplied realistic training equipment for Turkey, Singapore, Italy, Japan, France, and Australia and have products in production for Denmark, Israel, New Zealand, Mexico, & Finland.
• We’ve delivered motion seat systems for F-15, F-16, M346 & T-50 fighters and AH-64, SH/HH/MH-60, and NH-90 helicopters simulator.  In repeated orders since 2005, we’ve provided all of the motion seats for US Navy SH & MH-60 simulators.
• We’ve produced more the 350 gun recoil systems used nationwide in US Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard simulators. Our machine gun simulators are used for gunnery training in trucks, armored assault vehicles and aircraft simulators. 
• We work continuously to improve our products.  For example, our motion seats are 5th Generation.
• We’ve partnered with universities and labs to study and advance motion seat technology and training effectiveness. Our Cooperative Research Agreement with the Air Force Research Lab evaluated F-16 crews flying our motion seat and proved the seat was especially useful for critical skills like energy management.  Our cooperative study with Carleton University in Canada proved that motion seats are the best technology to training hovering skills.

ACME’s facilities are comprised of 10,000 square feet, including 3,500 square feet of office space adjacent to a 6,500 square foot high-bay, warehouse/manufacturing area. With in-house capabilities spanning the full spectrum of hardware and software engineering, systems integration, and testing, ACME has the expertise to quickly respond to customer requirements by developing and executing low risk program plans. ACME’s success is predicated on customer service and commitment to doing the project right, the first time.
