The objective of this paper is to present the Swedish land mine and UXO detection project "Multi Optical Mine Detection System"; MOMS. The goal for MOMS is to provide knowledge and competence for fast detection of mines; especially surface laid mines; by the use of both active and passive optical sensors. The research within the project is presented. However; the paper will focus on the infrared sensors and their possibilities and limitations to detect different objects; e.g. mines and UXOs.
The paper includes descriptions of modelling; simulations and experiments concerning optical mine detection systems.
