Standoff Detection of IED Threats in All Environments

Abstract

This effort develops technology to detect IED threats at standoff distances. Technologies include electro-optical, radar, light detection and ranging (LIDAR), atomic magnetometer and other technologies applicable to detecting IEDs and their components that can be integrated on dismounted Soldiers, ground, water-based and aerial systems or at fixed sites. This effort also develops technologies and network techniques to detect the electronic signature of radio-controlled IEDs. Technologies will be validated on their ability to detect IEDs and their components within infrastructure, on or under ground and water, and attached to vehicles or personnel. The goal for these technologies is to achieve high probabilities of detection while minimizing false alarms from naturally occurring and man-made entities.
