Phase I year
2017Phase I Amount
$224,890Benefit:
Anticipated development of thin, light weight, low power, large aperture, EO transmissive scanner will be of immediate use for new UAV airframes where conventional Beam steering devices has been prohibited due to steering large size, integration issues, weight, vibration and power consumption. This technology is critical to the success of thin large aperture, lightweight, and efficient Beam steering for Tactical ASW LIDAR project. When brought to product, some of the commercial applications that will benefit directly from the use of this technology are military, aerospace, sensing, imaging applications such as terrain mapping LIDAR and remote surveillance. Commercial applications are driven by the need for thin, low weight electro-optic beam steering for LADAR applications. The beam steering (BS) concept will be integrated on a variety of UAV platforms for dual use military and commercial applications
