Dismounted Explosive Hazard Detection Technology
Abstract
This effort investigates emerging component technologies to enhance detection of explosive hazards, including metallic and non-metallic landmines, Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), Home Made Explosives (HMEs), and Explosively Formed Penetrators (EFPs). Emphasis is on increased coverage area, higher detection rates, and increased discrimination probabilities. Technologies that provide low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) solutions are considered and studied to ensure solutions are viable for Soldier-portable applications. This effort also investigates advanced signal processing and detection algorithms for increased real-time feedback for threat detection and identification, and it collects data to inform studies investigating methods to reduce the operator's cognitive burden.
