BAE Delivers Prototype Night-Vision Goggle to US Army
(Lexington, Massachusetts, September 30, 2008) -- BAE Systems has developed and delivered to the U.S. Army a new helmet-mounted night-vision goggle system that combines visible, low-light, and infrared imagery for all-weather use in darkness and in other visibility-limiting conditions.
Developed through the Army's Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier Enhanced Night Vision Goggle advanced technology development program, BAE Systems' digitally fused enhanced night vision goggle, or ENVG(D), will allow soldiers to view, via a monocular eyepiece, imagery that exploits features from visible, low-light-level, and infrared sensors. The digitized data can then be shared across the battlefield, enabling the Army's vision for the "digital battlefield."
"The design and delivery of this prototype is a milestone in the Army's roadmap toward a digitally fused night vision goggle capability," said Rajani Cuddapah, ENVG(D) program manager for BAE Systems in Lexington, Massachusetts. "It substantially improves situational awareness for our men and women in combat, which means increased mission effectiveness - and, more important, increased survivability."
