Detect. Classify. Protect. Meeting the Threat Detection Challenge.

Rapid, detection of Biological and Chemical Warfare Agents (BWAs and CWAs), as well as the detection of explosive
devices, are critical in today’s uncertain world. Conventional means of detecting and identifying hazardous materials using reagent-based tools, including immunoassay, genetic markers or cell culturing, are fundamentally slow or too costly, due
to the reliance on expensive consumables.

ChemImage offers optical sensing technology that rapidly and accurately detects and classifies pathogens, CWAs and explosive materials without the use of reagents. ChemImage has created many customized solutions for governmental collaborative efforts that include work in hazardous material detection.

Application Areas Include:

  • Chemical: Identification of suspicious powders and liquids
  • Biological: Discrimination of hoaxes and threats
  • Explosive: Standoff explosive technology
