NAWCAD scientists forge new path for underwater optics
Scientists from the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division recently brought to light a new approach for underwater optics that could enhance fleet activities, such as detecting underwater mines and sea floor mapping.
NAWCAD engineers Linda Mullen and Alan Laux at Naval Air Station Patuxent River invented a method to encode a laser with a radar signal to improve the performance of underwater imaging systems in murky water.
"We program the laser with...
