This proposed phase 2 program builds on the foundations established in the phase 1 effort to demonstrate both a one dimensional close packed removable array for spectrally combined systems, and a two dimensional large collimated array for both diffractive optical element (DOE) coherently combined systems and also for multi aperture systems. This proposed program is well within Optical Engines exp ...

In Phase II Optonicus proposes the experimental demonstration of fully integrated high-power FLAP beam director prototype with multiple subapertures. The FLAP beam director will based on new prototype subsystems including: (1) compact lightweight multi-kW-class fiber-collimator module (INFICO) with integrated electronic laser beam pointing capabilities, (2) a multi-kW-class lens-positioner mod ...

Spectral Sciences, Inc., and subcontractors University of Massachusetts (Microwave Remote Sensing Laboratory) and Corvid Technologies, Inc., propose a scalable distributed radar system for mapping debris that will allow high precision tracking inside a fireball created by arena and sled tests. The key innovation of the proposed system is adapting techniques for debris tracking in tornados to trac ...

Spectral Sciences, Inc., and subcontractor Corvid Technologies, Inc., propose a Cloud Dynamics Post-Processing Tool (CDPPT) that extends with high fidelity the results of first principles hydrostructural code simulations of intercepts to later times. The capability addresses two important weaknesses of hydrostructural codes, i) the inability to model slow fragment deformation dynamics due to the ...

Spectral Sciences, Inc., and subcontractors Corvid Technologies, Inc., and Busek Co., Inc. propose a Database-Driven Discrete Debris Signature Model (4DSM) for signature estimates of discrete post-intercept debris (PID) and solid-rocket motor (SRM) debris. The 4DSM software tool is designed to post-process first-principles code (FPC) outputs. The tool will use a validated debris-properties datab ...
