ABOUT IEDDET II
Phase two of the IED Detection Programme aims to develop a multi-sensor technology demonstrator for stand-off detection and confirmation of IEDs and IED components buried in and near/aside the route and to demonstrate its capabilities, i.e., improved detection performance at increased rate of advance with reduced operator workload, in relevant Route Clearance detection field experiments. A remotely operated interrogation device is included to enhance the confirmation capability.
The main objectives with respect to technology development are as follows:
- Enhancement of sensor fusion capabilities for distributed sensors mounted on unmanned platforms.
- Development of an HMI for the multi-sensor detection and the multi-platform operating system in the Route Clearance control vehicle.
- Optimal deployment of a remotely operated interrogation tool for enhanced confirmation.
