Agiltron has developed a breakthrough modular IR imaging technology that employs a photomechanical effect, in which an array of micro-machined sensor pixels converts IR radiation into visible light signals that can be optically detected by commercial off-the-shelf CMOS or CCD visible-light imagers. With commercial CMOS imagers achieving multi-megapixel resolution, the resolution of the modular Agi ...

Infrared (IR) detection is an integral part of the Global War on terrorism. Vandium Oxide based micro-bolometers are the current state of the art in uncooled IRFPA. The need for higher resolution 1280X960 arrays that operate at low power for man-portable applications include 24 hour surveillance and targeting . Carbon Nanotube (CNT) based IR detectors could fill this need. CNTs have unique electri ...

There is a requirement for a seafloor mapping system that will provide high resolution imagery in very shallow water when rigidly mounted to a 24 foot boat that is advancing at up to 10 knots. In this Phase I effort we propose to determine the feasibility of meeting this requirement with a prototype multiple-ping chirp side-scan sonar to operate at high frequencies and high ping rates, where multi ...

The Combat Rubber Raiding Craft (Small) (CRRC(S)) is used by Special Operations Forces (SOF). The current craft, underway, produces a highly discernible bow wave that enhances its probability of detection. A primary means of reducing the detect- ability of the CRRC(S) is to decrease the bow wave and wake of the craft that will enhance the survivability of the craft and crew in the combat arena. To ...

SCIENTECH proposes to design, develop, and test an ultra-broadband active biconical antenna, fabricated from thin copper clad fiber glass or teflon (PCB). This active biconical antenna will be designed and be compatible with existing receivers, will be extremely low physical profile, and yet support effective reception in the HF, VHF, and UHF frequency ranges. The ultra-broadband active biconical ...
