Description

USSOCOM is seeking to significantly reduce the latency associated with digital night vision optic systems and is soliciting concepts and ideas to accomplish this goal as part of the Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit (TALOS) project. Current prototype digital designs have more data latency than comparable analog systems and are unusable in the field.
