07ED-04-LASR - Detector, Explosive, Laser-Based, Standoff
Description:
A standoff explosive detector based upon active laser-based interrogation of targets from a distance using an unconfined laser beam. The laser-target interaction produces a spectral signature denoting the chemical composition of the target. Explosive materials exhibit unique spectral signatures. Depending upon the technology, units may be mature or in the prototype form. These include, but are not limited to, standoff Raman Spectroscopy, Laser Acoustics, Laser Photothermal Imaging and Spectroscopy, and Laser Photofragmentation. Only bulk quantities of chemicals in plain view have been successfully detected. DIQCode: [D, I]
