Explosive detection

absorption and Raman scattering) [21], internal reflection spectroscopy [22], mass-spectrometry [23] and electrochemistry [24,25] have also been applied for forensic analysis of human or animal hair, fiber, paint and ink, a variety of human body fluids, detection of gunshot residues, controlled substances (e.g., illicit drugs),…

the marines evaluate what role a dog is best suited for: patrol, detection, or tracking. Though the military resists discussing individual dogs, records indicate that Zenit spent 13 months in the Lackland kennels. Because dogs have short attention spans, his lessons would have lasted up to an hour or two each day, with some as short as three to five minutes at a time. At the course’s end Zenit was certified for explosives detection and…

Racial Profiling involves the targeting by a law enforcement official simply based on the color of one’s skin, physical features, religion, and race. One form of racial profiling is criminal profiling, practiced by law enforcement officials as focus on a group of characteristics; believe to be associated with crime (ACLU, 2015).

The last round is called HellHounds and shoot extremely powerful projectiles at the enemy from 140 yards away and can explode everything in the radius of the target (Bracetti). The HK M320 grenade launcher fires NATU grenades which are highly explosive, illuminating, and let out smoke. This grenade launcher can also be attached to regular firearms for better…

retriever, and he might have been the brightest dog, I have ever seen. I named him after the brightest star in the Canis Major constellation. He is a great dog, well trained in explosives detection, and he is also a great family pet. Our job is to check every truck that comes in and around the building for explosives. It is a safety hazard if you do not check the trucks. It is all devastation. We are walking in the piles of debris searching for the people that are lost, and I hear this…

measures that they go through to make sure everyone is safe and are necessary for our protection. They use the best technology and methods to keep things private. “Pat-downs and advanced imaging are not a violation of personal space. The extra explosive detections are not designed to be invasive. They are precautions to ensure the safety of all persons in the airport or on the plane” (O 'Connor). Airport Security is just doing their job. At times it may seem ridiculous and over the top but…

With their keen sense of smell, dogs are trained to be detection dogs or sniffer dogs. These dogs can help people, especially the police, to detect substances, for instance, explosives, illegal drugs, wildlife scat, currency, blood, or accelerants such as gasoline and lighter fluid (Clark, 2013). Also, dogs can be trained to become assistance dogs, which help people who…

Chapter 5 Proximity Sensor 5.1 Introduction A proximity sensors is the sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact. A proximity sensors often emits an electromagnetic field or a beam of electromagnetic radiation, and looks for changes in the field or return signal. The object being sensed is often referred to as the proximity sensor's target. Different proximity sensor target demand different sensor. For examples a capacitive or photoelectric sensors…
