The DNVT effort utilises and continues more than two decades of Department of Defense science and technology research, development and investment into digital visible, low-light level and infrared cameras, image processing and display component technologies and integrated systems.
With QinetiQ support, the US Army will continue to evolve capabilities via DNVT through development, integration, experimentation and laboratory and platform test and evaluation including but not limited to using digital imaging, display, processing, and network architecture technologies to support military operations.
DNVT will substantially enhance soldiers’ situational awareness and decision-making abilities by developing digital night vision capabilities coupled with component technology enhancements including fused imagers, display enhancements, and image processing hardware and algorithms.
Shawn Purvis, President and Chief Executive Officer of QinetiQ US, said: “Digital Night Vision Technology will better enable soldiers to view and understand information in tactical environments allowing them to react and respond to real-time data. We are proud to support the critical needs of our US Army customers.”
