High-resolution, Ultrasensitive Hazardous Chemical and Biological Signatures from Airborne Wireless Sensors
Abstract
We propose a novel sensing system for point and standoff detection of chemicals and biological agents (and explosives) and their byproducts using higher harmonic modulation spectroscopy in the mid-infrared region. The sensing system will be integrated to a robotic unmanned aerial platform (a customized Quadcopter) for automated sensing at standoff distances of 100 m or more. The system will operate on a dedicated local wireless platform capable of wide-area mapping of vapor phase plumes and adaptive maneuverability based on distance, and location from the source.
