DESCRIPTION:Photonics is the key technology that is enabling the current 4t
 h industrial revolution. It plays a vital role in our everyday life and ev
 erywhere around us. Photonics is revolutionizing defense technologies to p
 rotect national assets. It allows warfighters to remain informed about the
 ir situational awareness\, aiming\, firing\, range measurements\, and safe
 ty during operations through optical sensors\, reliable and secure communi
 cation\, and electronic warfare (EW). Photonics provides highly accurate a
 nd reliable ways to detect and neutralize threats. This talk will give a b
 road overview of some photonics applications specific to defense to create
  an awareness of the importance of photonics.\n\n[2024 Technical Symposium
