20-000000470 HYPERVIPER: Broadband Hyperspectral Imaging System
Abstract
PROJECT ABSTRACT (Approved for Public Release)Hyperspectral imaging has found applications in numerous fields, from remote environme ntal imaging to medical diagnostics. Technologies in the past have focused on spectral ranges either in the visible (0.4-0.7 micron s), near-infrared (2-5 microns). This project proposes to develop a broadband hyperspectral imaging system called HyperViper that sp ans visible to mid-infrared range (0.4-10 microns). Two architectures are proposed based on interferometric and grating-based spect ral mapping. Year 1 will focus on the design, quantitative performance estimation and performance tradeoffs for each of these archi tectures, with the year-end milestone focused on the ability to pick one or both for systems integration. Year 2 will focus on desi gning and building the systems architecture that integrates hardware, firmware and software for hyperspectral imaging. A performanc e test system will be developed to both calibrate the system and evaluate its accuracy as well as detection sensitivity, spectral re solution, spatial resolution and time resolution. Year 3 will focus on research in miniaturization and package design and implementa tion to develop handheld hyperspectral imaging system. It is expected that by the end of the project, the technology and the knowhow for developing broadband hyperspectral imaging systems will be demonstrated to the point of translation to a commercial effort.
