Handheld Explosive Detector

Prof. Anil Kumar

Beaglez has been developed at IIT Bombay in collaboration with Bigtec Labs. Beaglez achieves canine levels of sensitivity, and can detect TNT, RDX, PETN, SEMTEX & other plastic explosives used in home-made, military explosives & IED’s. Beaglez can be used for screening people, buildings, terrorist hotspots, and post-blast search. With the increasing threat of terrorism, Beaglez will enable enhanced surveillance and help enforce counter-terrorism initiatives.

Global security concerns are on the rise. With the increasing incidence of insurgency and terrorism, there is an acute need for evidence-based security. Beaglez is a handheld explosive detection system; aiming to empower Homeland Security groups around the world with state of the art explosive detection and screening.
