Countermine & Bar Dev
Abstract
This Project matures and demonstrates technologies for finding and neutralizing explosive hazards in varying vegetation, soil, and weather conditions at varying times of day. Activities include standoff and close-in detection and neutralization of explosive threats with technology integrated onto both air and ground platforms and in dismounted operations. Efforts are supported by modeling and simulation assessments to define potential system effectiveness. The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the United States (U.S.) Army Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC)/Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate (NVESD), Ft. Belvoir, VA. Minefield neutralization efforts are closely coordinated with Navy/Marine Corps.
