Sensors for Autonomous Operations and Survivability

Abstract

This effort will deliver component technologies which greatly improve current and future thermal sensor performance through novel materials, new pixel designs and enhanced image processing, compression, and analysis capabilities. Research into novel multi-function digital read-out integrated circuits and other sensor components will provide embedded on-chip, non-uniformity correction, dynamic motion compensation, on-chip stabilization of infrared imagery and data compression with a significant reduction in data transmission requirements, greatly increased sensitivity of low size, weight, power and cost thermal sensors, and imaging capabilities through natural and manmade obscurants. These components will enable sensor systems to provide vehicle borne and dismounted soldier situational understanding in all environments.
