Projects
Examples of current, previous or ongoing EDL projects that demonstrate our capabilities and versitility.
Global Strike Bomb Damage AssesmentThe Global Strike Bomb Damage Assesment project was a cooperative venture between K-State's SMART Lab and EDL to produce a robust neutron detector module for a battlefield sensor package. The sensors would be scattered by aircraft or cluster munitions around a target building, which would then be destroyed. The EDL/SMART Lab neutron detector module would analyze the dust and debris following the explosion for traces of radioactive material. |
ALTUS (Sandia National Laboratories)This project supported the development of a laser remote sensing system for Sandia National Laboratories and the Department of Energy. The system uses an ultraviolet fluorescence LIDAR to detect chemical and biological aerosols in the atmosphere. EDL developed the readout and control electronics for the intensified CCD detector, the primary payload which will fly aboard the unmanned vehicle "ALTUS" shown above. |
Fermilab "D-Zero" ExperimentThe D-Zero Experiment, led by the High Energy Physics group, focused on the precise study of interactions between protons and antiprotons at the highest available energies. EDL responsibilities to the project were the design of various printed circuit boards to refresh digital signals and provide power control to experiment elements. |
Laser Scattering DASEDL developed sensors and data aquisition systems to measure laser scatter over large angles. |
