Ground Based Sensors and Integration for Degraded Visual Environments (DVE)
Abstract
This effort provides uncooled IR sensor technologies to improve the survivability for manned and unmanned ground vehicle systems by providing increased SA in all conditions and environments, to include DVE. Improvements in sensitivity and the development of signal processing techniques are needed to enable current uncooled IR sensors to penetrate obscurants that create DVE. The integration of improved sensors, signal processing algorithms, and data fusion techniques will enable mission capabilities to be maintained in DVE (e.g. smoke, dust, fog). This is a Joint effort with the Tank Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center under PE 0602601A, Project C05 and 0603005A, Project 221; and it is fully coordinated with PE 0602709A, Project H95.
