Description

Triton Systems, teamed with a major US manufacturer of optical glass and night vision components, will further develop an innovative manufacturing process for anti-reflection coatings on the front lens surface of soldier optics of all kinds. The new process will significantly improve the glint reduction atlarge angles of incidence compared to current methods. The new anti-reflectance technology will allow computationally designed nanostructures to be applied to lens surfaces of any radius of curvature or aperture. Phase II will demonstrate the various manufacturing steps of the scalable technology, as well as the ability to meet durability requirements specified in MIL-C-675.Sample lenses with the new technology will be delivered to the Army for testing.
