Research abstract

Lucid Dimensions is developing Spherical Detection Systems (SDS) for detecting and tracking infrared(IR) heat signatures in three dimensions. Spherical Detection Systems offer distinct advantages over contemporary imaging systems, significantly enhancing three-dimensional (3D) situational awareness. Sensor systems utilizing a spherical geometry as a foundation can be designed for a variety of applications. These systems calculate extremely accurate angular directions to signal sources. Sophisticated systems with full spherical sensor placement are being designed for monitoring multiple targets in any spatial orientation. Information generated from these systems can be integrated with existing BMDS sensor components for further target identification. Full spherical SDS systems offer a 4 Pi steradian Field of Regard (FOR) for complete situational awareness. This phase I research will explore SDS technology for the real time monitoring of natural and enhanced space environments.
