Oasys Technology to Produce 2300 HMDs for Army

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Oasys Technology of Manchester, N.H., announced it has received a multimillion dollar award from the US Army Research, Development and Engineering Command [RDECOM] for 2300 units of its remote eyepiece display-imager (Red-I), a monocular head-mounted display (HMD) system that provides remote video from any thermal weapon sight (TWS) system with a field of view equivalent to the TWS eyepiece. The HMD attaches directly to standard-issue military helmets or protective eyewear and is thin enough to fit behind the blast visor of the cupola protective ensemble, Oasys said. The Red-I operates with either OLED or AMLCD microdisplays; provides see-through "real-world" imagery and full color or monochrome operation; works continuously for more than 12 hours on a single DL123 battery; weighs 4oz, including battery and controls; is compatible with other video sources, such as universal night-sight thermal and universal night-sight fusion systems; and is configurable to accept video from other battlefield devices in RS-170 or SVGA mode.

photonics
The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
