Beyond EO/IR: Novel Sensor Concepts for Naval Applications

16 Apr 2026
Keynote Theatre

• Comparative evaluation of colour TV, polarimetric, neuromorphic, and SPAD sensors against baseline EO/IR modalities.

• Defined use cases and representative maritime objects for structured evaluation.

• Dual approach using quantitative metrics and algorithmic assessment (detection, classification, tracking).

• Identification of system concepts and user perspectives to guide layered integration of novel sensors.
