By Research Support Instruments (RSI)
The Adaptive Infrared Airborne Imaging Spectrometer (AIRIS) is an adaptive hyperspectral imager designed to support passive standoff detection of chemical and biological hazards. The instrument uses an adaptive Fabry-Perot spectrometer to dynamically change the operating wavelength so as to scan through a desired set of wavelengths and form the hyperspectral data cube. The instrument has been used extensively at Dugway proving ground and is now used as a standard at that facility. RSI provides optical design, procurement, and assembly of the infrared optics. RSI also provides test development, testing support and field test support.
