Hostile Fire & Pre-Shot Detection for Vehicle Protection Systems (Army)

Abstract

This project comparatively tests technologies to autonomously detect and locate incoming hostile fire as well as potential threats before a shot is fired. These technologies will increase situational awareness and reduce response times leading to increased lethality and survivability for ground forces, especially in urban environments. This project enhances DoD capabilities in the Autonomous Systems focus area. If successful, this technology will transition to the Army’s Program Manager for Vehicle Protection Systems for initial fielding in 2022. Test articles received and initial testing, bench testing and safety certification occurred throughout FY 2020.
