Field deployed Explosive Trace Detector (ETD) and Narcotic Trace Detector (NTD)Service for airport and port-of-entry

• Certified spectrometer Explosive Trace Detector (ETD).
• Laboratory performance mass spectrometer ETD that is inexpensive simple to use, field rugged and reliable.
• Mass spectrometry ultra-high laboratory accuracy ETD delivers a near zero False Alarm Rate (~0%FAR) 100% of the time.
• Low ~0% FARs eliminate thousands of unnecessary and labor intensive  ETD initiated patdowns and delays.
• Lowest cost of ownership by using fewer swabs requiring no dopants or calibration bottles and is low maintenance.
• Delivers 100% uptime with only one brief calibration per 24 hrs. scheduled during off-time.
• Unlimited and instant explosive library updates.
• Real-time threat alerts sent to supervisor’s desktops and phones.
• Artificial intelligence is at work 24/7 providing threat detection probability analysis for each scan.
• Establishes a new level of confidence in ETD detection reducing workload stress and frustrations for both security personnel and passenger

​Ports and Border Control

Ports and border crossings are critical gateways for people, goods, and commerce—and at the same time, strategic points of vulnerability. Every day, vast volumes of cargo, vehicles, luggage, and passengers move through seaports, airports, land borders, and logistics hubs. Security authorities must enable this flow efficiently while preventing the movement of explosives, hazardous materials, and other prohibited substances. In ports and border control environments, security decisions must be made quickly, accurately, and without disrupting legitimate trade and travel. Officers often encounter suspicious materials under time pressure, with limited information and minimal opportunity to isolate the scene. The ability to move rapidly from suspicion to reliable identification at the point of inspection is essential to maintaining both safety and throughput.k here to edit.

The challenges in Ports and Border Control Ports and border security operations face several persistent challenges: High throughput vs. effective screening: Border crossings and ports must process large numbers of passengers, vehicles, containers, and parcels. Security tools must deliver fast results without creating bottlenecks or unnecessary delays. Wide variety of goods and materials: Cargo and luggage may contain chemicals, powders, pharmaceuticals, food products, or industrial materials that are legal in one context but restricted in another. Visual inspection alone is rarely sufficient to determine risk. Concealment and contamination: Explosive materials and precursors may be deliberately hidden or leave only microscopic traces on surfaces, packaging, or personal belongings. Detection must therefore extend beyond visible evidence. Operational and environmental stress: Inspections take place in challenging conditions—outdoors, in changing weather, around heavy machinery, or in confined inspection zones. Equipment must be robust, portable, and reliable throughout long shifts.

​Defense

Modern defense operations take place in complex and rapidly changing environments where threats may arise far beyond conventional battlefields. Military forces must protect personnel, bases, logistics chains, and civilian populations while operating under conditions of uncertainty, time pressure, and asymmetric risks. Today’s defense landscape includes not only traditional explosives and munitions, but also improvised devices, chemical hazards, and the potential use of radiological materials.In this context, effective defense is defined by the ability to detect, identify, and respond to threats early, directly at the point of contact. Commanders and units in the field require reliable information to distinguish between harmless materials and real dangers, enabling fast and confident decisions that preserve operational continuity and protect lives.

The challenges in Defense operationsDefense forces face several persistent and mission-critical challenges:

• Speed vs. operational certainty: Military units often operate in environments where delays can compromise missions or endanger personnel. Waiting for laboratory confirmation is rarely an option; yet acting on incomplete information can lead to unnecessary force protection measures or missed threats.
• Harsh and unpredictable conditions: Deployments may occur in deserts, mountains, maritime zones, or urban combat areas. Equipment must withstand dust, vibration, humidity, temperature extremes, and rough handling—while remaining reliable and easy to use under stress.
• Asymmetric and unconventional threats: Threats may include IEDs, explosive precursors, unknown powders, chemical agents, or radiological materials used in unconventional or hybrid warfare. These hazards may be deliberately concealed within everyday objects or civilian infrastructure.
• Limited infrastructure and logistics: Forward operating bases and mobile units often lack access to laboratories or extensive analytical support. Detection and identification tools must therefore be portable, autonomous, and effective without external dependencies.
