Stand-Off Gas Cloud Detector for Chemical Warfare Agents (United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM))
Abstract
Stand-Off Gas Cloud Detector for Chemical Warfare Agents validates a remote stand-off gas detector that uses a thermal camera to conduct a spectral analysis in order to detect, identify, classify, and visualize chemical hazards such as chemical/industrial toxic agents of Special Operations Forces (SOF) peculiar interest. The candidate detector uses un-cooled Infra-red (IR) micro-bolometer technology. The primary outputs and efficiencies to be demonstrated in the project are to provide SOF a detection capability that it does not currently posses and to avoid Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E), manufacturing, and production costs worth $10.664 million.
