Research abstract

To address the Navy need for a lightweight electro-optic sensor system to be incorporated onto Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platforms with multispectral object-recognition capability found in the Joint Multi-Mission Electro-Optics (EO) System (JMMES), Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a novel Ultra Lightweight EO Sensor (ULEOS) system. The proposed sensor is based on a wideband common fore optics with lightweight mirror scanner for sensor pointing and stabilization, multiband imaging Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) using high-speed EO spectral tuning. The ULEOS will provide multispectral imaging and target tracking, with real-time image fusion covering VIS, NIR, SWIR and MWIR spectral bands. The unique ULEOS design will enable a lightweight (
