Abstract
Boeing has developed and flight demonstrated a distributed aperture enhanced and synthetic vision system for integrated situational awareness. The system includes 10 sensors, 2 simultaneous users with head mounted displays (one via a wireless remote link), and intelligent agents for hostile fire detection, ground moving target detection and tracking, and stationary personnel and vehicle detection. Flight demonstrations were performed in 2006 and 2007 on a MD-530 "Little Bird" helicopter.
