Driver’s Vision Enhancer – Color Low Light (DVE-CLL)

Provides Enhanced Situational Awareness for Combat and Tactical-Wheeled Vehicles

Understand first. Act first. Finish the mission decisively.

The DVE-Color Low Light (DVE-CLL) provides combat and tactical-wheeled vehicle operators with enhanced situational awareness by combining the expansive views of the DVE-Wide with optimal EO/IR sensors.

The DVE-CLL, provides combat and tactical-wheeled vehicle operators with enhanced situational awareness by combining the expansive views of the DVE Wide with optimal EO/IR sensors.

Overall, the DVE-CLL improves survivability and mission capability, allowing safe navigation through dust, sand, haze, smoke, light fog and the blackest night all while improving safety during Thermal Crossover.

The ‘front-facing’ DVE–CLL integrates three state-of-the art 640 x 480, 17-micron uncooled infrared sensors coupled with digital color low light, delivering a stitched video with of a 107° x 30° field of view (FOV).

The DVE–CLL can receive, manage, and display video from multiple external vehicle cameras. The driver can electronically pan through 107° of total horizontal fields of view, eliminating blind spots and allowing the driver to see both sides of the road. Vehicle wheel track indicators aid the driver in clearly identifying any potential impediments allowing operators to leverage color, ultra-sensitive low light, and near infrared imagers for additional spectral coverage.

The DVE-CLL is fully “backwards compatible” with all fielded DVE units, which means that any vehicle currently equipped with a DVE system can be readily upgraded. It is also forward compatible with new, high resolution, touchscreen displays.
