Remote observation, Surveillance and Radio Frequency (RF) emission collection systems for Land Warfare Centre (LWC)

Descriptions

Project BESTLA seeks to create a suite of 3 systems that will provide training assessors (OMs) with greater objective data on the training troops' activities and behaviours. The three systems are:1 - The OM system. A range of directional cameras and microphones installed into a HQ tent to increase the "eyes and ears" of the OMs so they can see and hear more to inform their assessments.2 - The Surveillance system. Aerial and ground footage, in both video and still imagery form, capturing the visual and thermal spectrum, to replicate what an enemy might be able to see from a distance. This is allow the OMs to show training troops where they are visible so they can then mask their appearance.3 - The Radio Frequency (RF) system. Capture of the emissions from tactical communications systems used by troops in the military RF spectrum so OMs can show troops what an enemy might be able to "hear". This system wouldn't capture what is being said, as the radios are encrypted, but would be able to show frequency, direction and power usage
