Description

Develop and, in phase IIdemonstrate, a re-configurable, real-time portable infrared hyperspectral imaging system. The envisioned capability will have demonstrated utility in detection and identification of critical targets in complex, highly variable backgrounds.The project team proposes to develop a concept for an infrared hyperspectral imaging system capable of specific performance objectives as described in the solicitation. Develop an analysis of predicted performance, and define key component technological milestones. Establish performance goals in terms of parameters such as detection time; spectral range; image quality; field of view; day, night and obscured condition visualization; image frame rate; and size, weight and power (SWaP). Provide a contrast with existing hyperspectral imaging systems. Produce an initial mockup, possibly using 3D printed parts, showing the system form factor at the preliminary design level.
