OPTO-KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS INC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase II: N17A-T016

OPTO-KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS INC — SBIR Phase II award from Department of Defense.

Phase II SBIR prototype / development signal

  • Phase II is where Department of Defense funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
  • Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
  • At $2,450,000, this is a large obligation for typical SBIR Phase sizing — worth reviewing for scope breadth and teaming opportunity.
  • Topic code N17A-T016 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description

This effort will develop a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) compliant prototype of the single frame super resolution (SUPREME) capability for the Shipboard Panoramic Electro-Optical Infrared (SPEIR) program with enhancements specific to automatic target detection (ATD), automatic target recognition (ATR), and target tracking. We will quantify the benefits of SUPREME empirically for ATD, ATR, and multitarget tracking. Demonstrating the benefits of the enhanced SUPREME super resolution prototype capability in specific applications is superior to quantitative performance metrics. We will provide appropriate documentation (e.g., interface control documents (ICDs), etc.) for the MOSA compliant SUPREME prototype developed under this effort to ensure that the prototype can be tested and validated by the government customer. The end deliverable will be an enhanced SUPREME prototype that is demonstrated to TRL 6 for several applications required by the SPEIR system.
