FORT BELVOIR, Va. (April 1, 2026) — U.S. Army researchers are partaking with industry’s night-vision functionality builders to assist information science and technology investments.
The Army Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center lately hosted greater than 20 firms for demonstrations and briefings as a part of the service’s technique for night-vision S&T adoption, adaptation, and growth. Topics included precision focusing on programs, cooled/uncooled infrared sensors, augmented actuality, and thermal fusion options.
“Participating in the Association of Night Vision Manufacturers event enables the Army R&D community to gain a better understanding of the emerging concepts and capabilities from industry,” mentioned Dr. Richard Nabors, Principal Deputy Director of C5ISR Center’s Research and Technology Directorate. “The dialogues help inform us which technology areas can be adopted or adapted in the near term for the battlefield and where new research and development is needed.”
In addition, C5ISR Center subject-matter consultants introduced companies accessible to assist industry advance their options. These embrace discipline experimentation at Fort A.P. Hill, aviation integration and testing at Davison Army Airfield, digital prototyping, sensor efficiency analysis, and the night-vision weapons firing vary.
“Army scientists and engineers combining expertise with industry counterparts enables the military to deliver the best weapons systems to Soldiers while ensuring the optimal government investments,” Nabors mentioned.
