MENLO PARK, Calif. SOSSEC, Inc. officials, on behalf of the Night Vision and Electronic Sensor Directorate (NVESD), selected SRI International's to deliver digital night vision camera prototypes to support the U.S. Army's Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) program.
Under the program, SRI will design a low-light-level CMOS [complementary metal oxide semiconductor] image sensor and integrate the device into a custom camera module optimized for low size, weight, and power (SWAP) systems.
The IVAS is designed to incorporate head, body, and weapon technologies on individual soldiers. It is a single platform that the warfighter can use to fight, rehearse, and train that provides increased lethality, mobility, and situational awareness necessary to overmatch current and future adversaries. The system includes squad-level combat training capability, for repeated iterations of training and rehearsals.
