Goodrich to Develop Night-Vision Technology for DARPA

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Goodrich Corp.'s ISR Systems division was awarded a three-year contract to develop night-vision sensor technology for helmet-mounted and micro vehicle applications by DARPA for its MicroSensors for Imaging (MISI) program. The ISR (intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance) unit makes prototypes of highly sensitive, lightweight cameras using shortwave infrared (SWIR) sensor technology. For the MISI contract, Goodrich's Sensors Unlimited Inc. (SUI) team will develop indium gallium arsenide-night vision (InGaAs-NV) SWIR sensors and incorporate them into a 640 x 512-pixel-resolution camera...Read full article

    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...
