　　KBR is looking for highly motivated rising Juniors, Seniors and Graduate students seeking science, engineering and software development opportunities that provide challenging and meaningful work experience to be a part of our 2024 Intern class.

　　This internship project will help support a larger research and development project that we will be developing and testing a polarimetric imagery (PI) capability for passive detection and tracking of unmanned systems (UxS). We intend to aid in solving this problem by developing a low-SWAP, passive, optical sensor that relies on exploitation of the unique polarimetric signatures of targets. The intern will be led through the process of reviewing established software requirements, designing software to meet those requirements, and building and testing software written. Time allowing, they will also use the developed software to collect field data and report on results. Mentors will guide the intern towards materials, equipment, and procedures/processes to use and will review produced code and/or testing results. Results will be documented in a final report and presented to staff at the end of internship.
