Research abstract
The objective of this proposal is to design and develop a future night vision system (FNVS) that will incorporate advanced sensor, display, and other electro-optical technology within one, two, and four channel configurations. This type of system will not only enhance the warfighter's direct-view night vision capability but will also allow for simultaneous overlay of other sensor and symbology information provided by the aircraft or similar systems capable of supplying a proper electronic signal. Key considerations such as operational effectiveness and suitability will also be at the forefront of the FNVS design effort. For this reason the FNVS will be designed with state-of-the-art optical performance in a package that has an extremely low profile and weight. As a result, this type of system will be easily adaptable to many tasks for land, air, and maritime operation.
