Research abstract

Luminit, LLC proposes to develop a new full-color dynamic site overlay based on Luminits holographic technology (DOSH) to address the Army need for a low-cost dynamic electronic overlay display system for small arms sights. Luminit will develop and fabricate the full-color DOSH gun sight based on the successful demonstration of the Phase I benchtop DOSH system. The Phase II DOSH gun sight will be small (~1.5 in. wide x 3 in. long), lightweight (~5 oz), and robust to meet MIL-STD-810 requirements for high shock loads and harsh environments. It will be fully see-through, provide > 90% light transmission in the visible and near-IR bands, and will be integrated with a commercial Trijicon ACOG scope. DOSH will have full-color SXGA resolution, cost ~ $800, and operate ~100 hours using two batteries. It will operate in a wide temperature range, from -46C to +70C, and offer super-high brightness, up to 40,000 nit; DOSH is also adjustable to accommodate both day and night conditions. The Phase II prototype DOSH will meet all the Army requirements and will be delivered to the Army for evaluation.
