capabilities at the EOC

The mission of the EOC is to provide the most advanced electro-optic technologies to the United States Warfighter and national security interests through...

  • Basic and applied research
  • CONOPS development and technology demonstrations
  • Electro-Optic Alliance collaborations
  • Technically savvy program management
  • Facilitation of technology transfer
  • Workforce development

The EOC has developed the talent and resources to support its mission objectives in all aspects of the electro-optics sciences. The EOC has the internal capability to design, develop and test components, devices and systems that form the core of the electro-optics sciences. The EOC’s initiatives in workforce development and education have served to address K-12, Undergraduate and Graduate Students; and Incumbent Workers in both Industry and government. To see how we can serve you, we encourage you to continue to browse our capabilities.

Capability Area Summary
Education Programs and Outreach Promotes science, engineering, technology, and education at all levels
Fiber Optics, Photonics and Engineering Advances in optical fiber, fiber optic networks, sensors, tethers, lighting, and components
Laser Development and Application Laser interactions both for manufacturing and DoD weapons applications
Materials Design and Process Technology Advances in production, processing and characterization of electronic and electro-optic materials
Sensor Technology The Sensor Technology Division is focused on four technology thrust areas: EO/IR Imaging; Night Vision Technology; Millimeter Wave/Terahertz Imaging; and, Payload Development for Unmannned Platforms. Internal capabilities include requirements and technology assessments; material characterization; modeling/simulation; component/system hardware, software/algorithm development and evaluation; component/system performance and qualification testing; and, component/system integration. The Division has 6400 square feet of state-of-the-art laboratories. Over the past five years, the Division and our DoD, academic, and industry partners have developed and tested prototype hardware in each technology thrust area. Most importantly, we delivered systems to the warfighter that are currently in several theaters of operation worldwide.
