Bodkin Design & Engineering, LLC has been awarded a SBIR contract from the U.S. Air Force to develop a switchable polarizing camera element. This device has the capability of switching from high-resolution IR imaging mode to a Polarimetric IR imaging mode when retrofitted to an IR camera. Surveillance using a polarization sensitive camera can improve the detection of targets under tree canopy, in camouflage and in cluttered environments. Newton, Massachusetts (PRWEB) December 12,...
