Visual Augmentation System Development

Abstract

The United States Navy Service Common Visual Augmentation Systems (VAS) Program of Record manages, procures, and maintains night vision devices, thermal detection devices, day/night weapons optics, and lasers in support of Navy combat capabilities with regard to the detection, recognition, classification, tracking, and destruction of hostile air and surface forces. The USN VAS Program also manages research into the future of visual augmentation systems and engages with Navy and DoD VAS stakeholders to ensure the Navy maintains competitive advantage over near-peer adversaries. Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy funding provides the United States Navy Service Common Visual Augmentation Systems (VAS) Program of Record with the ability to maintain competitive advantage over the nation's near peer adversaries by leveraging the military research community, other DoD VAS programs, academia and commercial industry in order to transition mature technologies (active, passive, multi-domain imaging sensors, laser systems, display systems, optics, image processing) that align with US Navy and DoD priorities.
