Counter Improvised Threat Advanced Technologies
Abstract
This effort matures and demonstrates technology to detect IED threats at standoff distances. Technologies include electro-optical, radar, light detection and ranging (LIDAR), atomic magnetometer and other technologies applicable to detecting IEDs and their components that can be integrated on dismounted Soldiers, ground, water-based and aerial systems or at fixed sites. This effort also matures and demonstrates technologies and network techniques to detect the electronic signature of radio-controlled IEDs, as well as technology critical to neutralizing and mitigating the effects of IEDs at standoff distances. Technologies include directed energy sources, energetic or kinetic effectors, encasement of the threat and Soldier, platform and base protection technologies. Will demonstrate these technologies to neutralize IEDs in-place and protect soldiers and equipment from the effects of IEDs. This effort also matures technologies that exploit data sciences including sensor processing algorithms, integration of sensor data, data processing and analytics, threat forecasting, and autonomous maneuver. Will demonstrate techniques that detect IED threats and identify trends to forecast probabilities of encountering or attributing IEDs based on operational data and machine learning techniques.
