NanoSniffer is the world’s first Microsensor based Explosive Trace Detector (ETD). It is developed by NanoSniff Technologies, an IIT Bombay incubated startup.
NanoSniffer is a 100% Made in India product in terms of research, development & manufacturing. The core technology of NanoSniffer is protected by patents in the U.S. & Europe.
Features
NanoSniffer provides trace detection of nano-gram quantity of explosives & delivers result in less than 10 seconds.
It identifies and categorizes explosives into different classes.
It detects all classes of military, conventional and homemade explosives threats.
It gives visible & audible alerts with sunlight-readable color display
Further analysis of the algorithms also helps in categorization of explosives into the appropriate class.
Significance
It will reduce dependency on imported explosive trace detector devices.
It will encourage other institutions, startups and medium-scale industries to research & develop products indigenously.
It’s a perfect example of lab to market product.
Being locally manufactured, it will save cost of import for the country.
