Explosives Forensics Advanced Technology

Abstract

This Project matures and demonstrates instrumentation and algorithms required to provide improved point, proximity, and stand-off detection of explosives and precursor materials to enable the warfighter to integrate chemical and explosive hazard detection equipment. This Project integrates explosive detection into the family of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear point and stand-off sensors, alternative chemical detection modalities and algorithms that will improve the probability of detection and attribution of an explosive hazard or Home-made Explosive manufacturing/assembly location. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Research in this Project supports the Army Science and Technology Ground Portfolio. Research is performed by the United States (U.S.) Army Engineer Research and Development Center and coordinated with the U.S. Army Futures Command. Research in this Project is related to, and fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0602144A (Ground Technology).
