The conferences in SPIE Security+Defence cross the divide between fundamental optical science and the application of the underpinning technologies in advanced defence and security systems. This is a unique symposium that will offer many opportunities to network with colleagues from a variety of disciplines in academia, industry, and government from all over the World, while addressing the new challenges that continue to emerge: network-enabled capability/network-centric warfare evolve; asymmetric warfare: military operations in the urban theatre; and peace-keeping.
SPIE Security+Defence will consider how the fundamental and emerging technology base is likely to be exploited in the future will be changing:
- Advanced Free-Space Optical Communication Techniques and Applications
- Unmanned/Unattended Sensors and Sensor Networks
- Electro-Optical Remote Sensing
- Technologies for Optical Countermeasures
- Military Applications in Hyperspectral Imaging and High Spatial Resolution Sensing
- Emerging Technologies
- Millimetre Wave and Terahertz Sensors and Technology
- Optical Materials and Biomaterials in Security and Defence Systems Technology
- Optics and Photonics for Counterterrorism, Crime Fighting and Defence
- Quantum-Physics-Based Information Security
- High-Power Lasers 2014: Technology and Systems
- Electro-Optical and Infrared Systems: Technology and Applications
