Description

In this effort, the Optical Sciences Company (tOSC) and Raytheon Vision Systems (RVS) will team to provide a revolutionary sensor system that can detect distant targets. The tOSC team will expand on our existing analysis and wave optics simulation tools to trade various wavelengths (Visible, Near-IR, Mid-IR, Long-Wave IR) and present a system design at the end of the phase 1 effort. We will also investigate the possibility of producing a laboratory emulation of the system as part of phase 1. Field tests of the Photon-counting Enhanced Sensor System (PhESS) would occur in phase 2 and 3 after generation of hardware that meets the system design. Approved for Public Release 14-MDA-8047 (14 Nov 14)
