The Office of Naval Research-sponsored Situational Awareness System (SAWS) installed on the aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69) prior to their deployment, uses two Electro-Optic/Infrared sensors placed forward and aft of the ship's island to provide 360 degree surveillance capability. Additionally, SAWS can enhance force protection, aid navigation, monitor visit, board, search and seizure operations, and detect mine-like objects in the water. (U.S. Navy photo by John F.
