Description
Physical Sciences, Inc. will develop an Ultra High Apparent Temperature Large Format Infrared Scene Projector (UHAT-LF-IRSP) employing digital micromirror device (DMD) technology with structured quantum cascade laser (QCL) illumination, addressing requirements for next generation scene projector capabilities to keep pace with evolving threats and associated threat detection sensors. The proposed Phase I program will produce an analytical model that will be validated by breadboard demonstrations of the QCL-based structured illumination with emphasis on speckle mitigation and large format DMD projection. Requirements and a conceptual design for a prototype UHAT-LF-IRSP to be developed in full in Phase II will be generated. Approved for Public Release | 21-MDA-11013 (19 Nov 21)
