Polaris Sensor Technologies, Inc. has the capability to develop a sensor that could provide pilots with terrain updates immediately preceding brownout. This display would show terrain obstacles, slope hazards, and new objects not present in prior surveys. Polaris's motivation for the development of this sensor is for the warfighter. Dangerous brownout occurs in landing and takeoff conditions and slope hazards are difficult to identify. Polaris Sensor Technologies, Inc approach to this sensor uses passive stereo range camera. These camera's create a "virtual world" synthetic scene, which is then displayed to the pilot entering brownout.
