Description
Enhancing the mission capabilities of sensors based on small UAS requires both the exploitation of advanced passive and active sensor technologies and the development of a new, modular system architecture paradigm. Characteristics of Irvine Sensors Corporation"s proposed modular sensor concept includes a choice of VNIR, SWIR, or thermal imaging combined with SWIR 3D LIDAR Imaging to enhance resolution, sensitivity, target classification and tracking capabilities, as well as improve system level performance to enhance geo-location, handover, and targeting. These capabilities are encompassed in an advanced payload design capable of deployment on a broad spectrum of small UAS.
