DAHLGREN, Va. (March 23, 2016) - Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) systems engineer Deztany Jackson and NSWCDD scientist Timothy Leancu, a former Marine captain, use the fielded Common Laser Range Finder (CLRF) and the Defense Advanced GPS Receiver to take targeting measurements. The CLRF is a lightweight, eye-safe laser rangefinder capable of being carried and employed by a single Marine. It's primary functions are to assist the operator in target acquisition by measuring distance, direction, azimuth and vertical angle from the operator to an object. The CLRF interfaces with the Defense Advanced GPS Receiver, which is a handheld GPS receiver providing an operator with real-time position measurements. Jackson was honored as a 2016 Black Engineer of the Year (BEYA) Modern-Day Technology Leader during BEYA's 30th annual Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Global Competitiveness Conference Awards Gala held in Philadelphia, Feb. 18-20.
