DAP2109: Laser irradiation of Imaging Devices: Effects and Protection (LaserID)

The aim of the project is to understand and be able to predict laser effects on humans and optoelectronic sensors. It is mainly focused on the assessment of the effects of laser dazzle, as well as the effects of various protective measures and training. The project also covers all safety aspects inherent to laser attacks. It makes use of the laser tunnel and the laser dazzling shooting simulator at the RMA.
