Objectif The security market and owners of urban soft targets and critical infrastructure, require high definition surveillance systemsto monitor safety and security. Our innovative solution meets these needs by providing a value for money, light sensitivesensor that produces high definition images of non-illuminated areas at night and in low light conditions.Current technology suffers from poor light conversion and sensitivity therefore, to see at night and in low light conditions, thescene needs to be illuminated. Our proposal is to improve sensitivity by using sensors with organic compounds that aresensitive to background sky radiation (1.5 micron). We will also develop Application Specific Integrated Circuits to processthe sensor output. The novelty in our innovation is the integration of new technologies and the processing of data producedby a 1.5 micron organic sensor. This will deliver high resolution images at night and in low light conditions.Our solution will reduce the energy required to illuminate urban soft targets and critical infrastructure. Added benefits includea reduction in light pollution and that surveillance can be carried out in areas which have lighting restrictions. Thedevelopment of a proven, production ready system is the ultimate aim of the project. In Phase 1 we will carry out a feasibilitystudy to verify the technological, practical and economic viability of our proposal. Our feasibility study will consider the resultsof relevant European and International research.We plan to further develop our prototype and carry out a small-scale demonstration of our innovative solution. The results ofPhase1 will inform the direction of our future development activity in Phase 2. Our plan for full commercialisation of theproject will be to market the product initially in Europe and extending this globally. The Phase1 report will form the basis ofthe proposal for further development activity and identify any issues to be addressed in Phase2.
