Company DescriptionAdvanced Optical Systems, Inc. (AOS) was established in Huntsville, Alabama in 1988 by Dr. Richard Hartman, the former Director of Research at the U.S. Army Missile Command. At AOS, the focus is pushing state-of-the-art optical technology beyond existing boundaries to solve commercial and military problems. The extensive expertise of our team in physical optics, optical engineering, lasers, lens design, optomechanics, opto-electronics, electronics, and software is unparalleled. AOS specializes in optical signal processing that extracts information from images and applies the solution at the system level to solve real-world problems. We apply the power of massively parallel optical processors to extract information from highly complex scenes. The information is then refined and used to provide decision-making cues to operators and to close the loop on automated systems. Some examples of success in this area are automatic target recognition and remote attitude measurement systems. |
