Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for long range recognition and identification of objects and targets, and, more particularly, to long range imaging systems that include the use o f mid-wave infrared laser illumination technology are provided. In particular, mid-wave infrared laser illuminated imaging systems and methods are disclosed for addressing, among other things , the problems associated with long range, day or night observations of targets through various obscurants (e.g., fog, haze, rain, smoke). Such systems may be configured to operate in either a single, active illumination mode or in a dual, active/passive mode.
