1. A system for simulating an actual explosion of an explosive device, comprising:
- one or more firing devices operable to generate one or more pyrotechnic explosions to simulate an actual explosion of an explosive device, a firing device of the one or more firing devices comprising a pyrotechnic device operable to direct a pyrotechnic explosion of the one or more pyrotechnic explosions in a predetermined direction;
a control module coupled to the one or more firing devices and operable to;
receive a trigger signal from a trigger device, the trigger device operable to send the trigger signal in response to a trigger event; and
detonate the one or more firing devices in response to the trigger signal; and
a housing, the one or more firing devices and the control module disposed within the housing.

Abstract
According to one embodiment, a system for simulating an actual explosion of an explosive device includes one or more firing devices and a control module. A firing device comprises a pyrotechnic device operable to direct a pyrotechnic explosion in a predetermined direction to simulate the actual explosion of the explosive device. The control module receives a trigger signal from a trigger device, which is operable to send the trigger signal in response to a trigger event. The control module detonates the firing devices in response to the trigger signal.
