Dismounted Explosive Hazard Detection Technology
Abstract
This effort investigates emerging technologies enabling the dismounted Soldier to detect explosive hazards. In addition to landmine threats, explosive hazards include: IEDs, HMEs, explosively formed penetrators (EFPs) and antitank/antipersonnel landmines (metal and non-metallic). Emphasis will be on rate-of-advance, high detection probability and low false alarm rates. SWaP issues will be considered and studied to ensure solutions are viable for Soldier-portable applications. This effort investigates the processing and fusion of GPR and metal detector signals coupled with novel algorithms for increased real-time feedback on threat identification and sensor control.
