Attollo Engineering proposes to address the need for a quick-draw, pouch-storable laser rangefinder for day and night urban use. This self-contained unit will weigh less than 18 ounces and have a total volume less than 64 cubic inches. The system will provide post-fire target assurance, showing the operator where the laser landed on the target. In Phase I Attollo will survey and evaluate all relev ...

The SAL-UHP program is to develop and produce a compact, lightweight aiming and illumination system which helps to enable the operator to observe and identify targets at longer ranges than can be done with existing fielded laser devices. The proposed Envision SAL-UHP will allow the Warfighter to have a nighttime aiming and illumination capability which is significantly improved over legacy systems ...

There is a growing need for a single source of truth data about intertidal zones that can used by lawmakers, resource managers, conservationists, engineers, pharmaceutical and food manufacturers, farmers and fishers, and scientists for better environmental planning and protection, particularly for the land-sea interface. Our Phase II research will solve this challenge by developing a data analytic ...

To enhance U.S. Navy operations, a technology platform will be developed for fabricating environmentally robust, visible through near-infrared (NIR) band transparent, tapered resistivity films. After refining the operational requirements and updating the device design models, a design trade study will be performed using the measured electrical (i.e., conductivity) and optical (i.e., spectral trans ...

The objective is to deliver (12) SAL-UHP prototypes at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 7 to be used for demonstration in operational environments. The SAL-UHP prototype systems must provide the operator ability to illuminate 3 degree field of targets at 900m with a minimum high power output of 135 milliwatts (mW). Additionally the prototype systems must incorporate all good design practices for m ...

The purpose is to produce Miniature Aiming Ranging Laser (MARL) prototypes that will allow operators to illuminate and detect human targets from 0-900 meters, as well as vehicle targets from 0-3000 meters when using the AN/PVS-31 or AN/PVS-31A Binocular Night Vision Device (BNVD). The objective is to to produce higher performing weapon mounted laser ranging/aiming/pointing/illuminating prototypes ...

The objective of MARL is to develop applied research toward an innovative capability to allow operators to illuminate, detect, and range human targets from 0-900 meters and beyond when using the PVS-31 or PVS-31A Binocular Night Vision Device (BNVD). Envision seeks to design, develop, and deliver a novel, compact, lightweight LRF with integrated aiming, pointing, and illuminating lasers with an un ...

There is a dearth of accessible information and innovative tools to map and obtain biomass data for analysis, conservation, and sustainable resource management of intertidal vegetation in the United States and globally. A major technical problem is the integration of biological and physical data at small spatial scales (2 meters). We propose Unoccupied Aerial Systems (UAS) can be used for quality ...

Changes in ocean temperature profoundly impact the productivity of fisheries and aquaculture. Consistently sampling offshore ocean temperatures, particularly at depth, is challenging and expensive. However, opportunistic sampling from fishing gear can address the challenge. Existing programs, such as Environmental Monitoring on Lobster Traps, have capitalized on this on a small basis. Expanding th ...

USSOCOM has been developing and using Visual Augmentation Systems (VAS) of varying sizes and capabilities for many years. These systems are available to the operator but are typically limited in their mission applicability. They are often limited in capability and only good for the mission they were developed for. Envision's effort seeks to develop a “device agnostic” capability which utilizes ...
