SENSING STRATEGIES INC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: AF193-CSO1
SENSING STRATEGIES INC — SBIR Phase I award from Department of Defense.
Phase I SBIR feasibility signal
- Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from Department of Defense in a technical approach.
- Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
- Obligated amount $50,000. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Topic code AF193-CSO1 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description
The proposed effort will develop a multi-spectral sensor suite that is tower-based to monitor for the approach and passing of cruise missiles. Using commercial-off-the-shelf cameras as a technology basis, the Phase 1 effort will determine the best spectral bandpasses and sensor fields of view for the modeled/measured signatures of relevant threats. The spacing of sensor towers will be determined so that a concept of operations can be developed for protecting an extended border. In a Phase 2 program, sensors will be developed for field demonstrations against surrogate threats leading to a firm concept for commercialization of an array of tower based sensors.
