Description

Triton Systems, Inc., in partnership with Vanderbilt University, will design, build, and test the Triton Sensor for Autonomous Identification and Location of Opposing Resistance (SAILOR), a hostile fire indicator mountable to Group 1 unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) and self-guiding target munitions. The Triton SAILOR uses a combination of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) optoelectronic components, CMOS fabrication-compatible metalenses, and robust hostile fire detection algorithms to reduce the size, weight, and power (SWAP) and cost compared to state-of-the-art systems. By having the unique ability to be deployed on smaller payload UAVs, the Triton SAILOR allows warfighters to locate enemy threats more readily and counter them more effectively.
