Objective: Develop and demonstrate a long-range listening device capable of accurately identifying and recording sounds at a distance. Description: Counterintelligence and Human Intelligence (CI/HUMINT) Marines perform intelligence operations in support of Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) operations, with a focus on the collection of information and identification of threats posed by hostile organizations, espionage, sabotage, subversion, or terrorism. They require organic, portable capabilities to aid in the collection of information for intelligence reporting to decision makers. The capability to surveil sounds from a distance enhances their toolset. While long-range listening devices exist, innovation is required to meet the Marine Corps' portability, range, target area, accuracy, and recording requirements. This SBIR topic seeks a small device that can accurately identify and record sounds at a distance. Requirements for the Long-Range Listening Device - Capable of effectively identifying and recording sounds at a distance of 200m (Threshold), while maintaining a minimal terminal target area of no more than 2 meters (Threshold). - Capture and deliver sufficient recorded sound quality and target precision (at range) for a human listener to reliably differentiate voice, mechanical noises, and natural sounds such as wind and water. - Small enough for an individual person to transport (50lbs or less) and set up from transit case to operational within one hour. - Non-military in appearance (preferred). - Able to operate by battery power with a minimum continuous recording time of 24 hours.
