Description

The Department of the Navy, Naval Air Systems Command, Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Special Communications Requirements Division (Code 4.5.11), is seeking information regarding Video Image Enhancement Techniques for protection of U.S. Navy facilities. Video images produced in support of U.S. Navy facilities are often the result of inferior equipment or inadequate recording conditions. Poor video recording conditions include low light level, out-of-focus lens, and motion blur. New video enhancement algorithms and processes that produce final video of evidentiary quality can compensate for these defects. Commercially available tools to perform this work are being sought. Ease of use of these tools is an important consideration.
