Description
Scientific Systems Company Inc. (SSCI) is proposing to integrate our TRL-7 commercial software product, SSCI’s ImageNavTM system with the capabilities of the Elbit Systems of America (ESA) Multimode Seeker Concept along with additional sensor and algorithms improvements to provide an enhanced navigation capability in GPS-contested environments. The Phase I effort will include a feasibility study to evaluate 1) the integration and performance of ImageNavTM and Visual-Inertial Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (VISLAM) on the ESA Multimode Seeker, 2) additional potential sensor modalities (such as RF) and powerline detection algorithms, 3) the benefits of data links to enhance midcourse and terminal navigation. The Phase I effort will result in a concept design for a prototype seeker system for a SOPGM munition that could be flown and tested during the Phase II program.
