Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase I year
2005
Phase I Amount
$99,985
We propose a pair of active camouflage architectures for micro air vehicles based on optical sensors and a novel yet practical optoelectronic packaging scheme

Phase II

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase II year
2006
Phase II Amount
$749,315
Trout Green Technologies, Inc. successfully proved the feasibility of its active camouflage technology through analysis and preliminary experimental demonstration in Phase I. In Phase II we propose to: develop a thorough simulation of the active camouflage to optimize architectural configurations; conduct a comprehensive technology development study of the packaging and manufacturability of the core opoelectronic technologies including modeling and experimentation in order to determine design rules; and produce prototypes of our near-term retro-fit technology and our long-term technology for integrated technologies.
