Abstract

Alakai Defense Systems has upgraded its short range UV Raman standoff explosive detection sensors called the Portable Raman Improvised Explosive Detection (PRIED) sensor by adding near trace detection capability. The PRIED sensor is a standoff detection sensor that works at ranges of 1-10m for a wide variety of explosives (50m for some selected chemicals). Recent improvements have focused on expanding PRIED’s capabilities to include near-trace detection of explosives at 1-2m range on fluorescent substrates. Data will be presented showing this new capability along with a brief description of the design upgrades
