The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has awarded Matter Intelligence Inc. a $1.25 million Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract for the development of multi-phenomenology sensing technology that integrates color, hyperspectral, and thermal imaging capabilities for real-time intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications. The contract, awarded on August 29, 2025, is structured as a firm fixed-price purchase order under the total small business set-aside program, with performance to be completed by February 28, 2027, at the company's El Segundo, California facility. This Phase II SBIR effort builds upon earlier research to advance integrated imaging systems that combine multiple sensor modalities into a unified platform for enhanced target detection and analysis. The fusion of color, hyperspectral, and thermal data streams enables operators to detect and classify objects across diverse environmental conditions and wavelength ranges, improving decision-making for military ISR missions. By consolidating these complementary sensing phenomenologies, the technology addresses AFRL's requirements for more capable and efficient surveillance systems while supporting the Small Business Administration's objective of stimulating small business participation in federal research and development initiatives.
