Laser Detect System (LDS) has launched drone-based explosive detection sensor, SpectroDrone, at the HLS & Cyber Expo in Tel Aviv, Israel. Launched after extensive testing, SpectroDrone is capable of detecting explosives, improvised explosive devices (IEDs) andchemical compounds. The new sensor employs LDS's laser-based explosive detection system, whichcan identifyexplosives and other hazardous materialsfrom several metres away. SpectroDrone detects dangerous materials over an operational radius of up to 3km, and remotely analysesmaterials in real time. The SpectroDrone payload can also be mounted on ground robots, such as LDS' SPHERE vehicle inspection systems.
