Recent advances in infrared sensor technology, detection algorithms, and high performance commercial computing hardware have enabled powerful new approaches to autonomous day/night video imaging-based protection systems for Navy surface ships. Under the ONR Fleet and Force Protection Future Naval Capabilities program, NRL has developed the Distributed Aperture System Infrared Search and Track (DAS IRST) system for that purpose. The DAS IRST system provides situational awareness against terrorist-class threats such as surfaced divers, rafts, small boats, and light aircraft, and covert surveillance capability, including autonomous detection, tracking, and threat designation for antiship missiles. The performance characteristics of the system are superior to prior implementations as the result of the development very-large-format high-sensitivity infrared focal planes and improved real-time detection, tracking, and threat declaration algorithms.
