Description
Hyperspectral sensing represents one of the most useful imaging techniques to collect and process critical target and background signatures across the electromagnetic spectrum. Each pixel represents a spatial coordinate as well as a spectral signature that can be exploited for multiple tactical and commercial applications. Hyperspectral system designs, however, are burdened with a complex trade space including size, weight, field of view, spatial resolution, spectral resolution, sensitivity, data rates, and processing overhead. Efficient, compact, configurable, yet cost effective, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) solutions that can adequately navigate these design variables will have a much greater impact in future tactical systems. optX proposes to develop a cost effective, compact infrared tactical HSI sensor with high spatial and spectral resolution.
