Research abstract
Marines need multispectral imagers to identify hazards while retaining day/night targeting capability. QuantaSpec has already developed a hyperspectral imager that has a small size, weight, power, and cost footprint. QuantaSpec's approach can be further improved to give hyperspectral imaging capability to thermal sights with an additional weight of a few tens of grams over the thermal imager footprint. QuantaSpec's technical approach has a very large signal advantage over grating or filter based approaches.
