Countermine Tech
Abstract
This project investigates, designs and evaluates new countermine components, sub-components and software algorithms for detection, discrimination and neutralization of individual mines, minefields and other explosive threats. The goal of this project is to accurately detect threats with a high probability, reduce false alarms and enable an increased operational tempo. This project supports Army science and technology efforts in the Ground, Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence, Air and Soldier portfolios. Work in this Project is related to and fully coordinated with PE 0602120A (Sensors and Electronic Survivability), PE 0602622A (Chemical, Smoke and Equipment Defeating Technology), PE 0602624A (Weapons and Munitions Technology), PE 0602709A (Night Vision Technology), PE 0602784A (Military Engineering Technology), PE 0603004A (Weapons and Munitions Advanced Technology), PE 0603606A (Landmine Warfare and Barrier Advanced Technology), PE 0603710A (Night Vision Advanced Technology). 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 Army Research, Development and Engineering Command (RDECOM)/Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Fort Belvoir, VA.
