The emergence of homemade explosive (HME) threats and their use by terrorists has placed many challenges on the security screening layers. ETD instruments have been presented with the need to detect a wide range of threats in a broad range of screening scenarios, including break-bulk cargo in air cargo facilities and baggage and passenger screening at aviation security checkpoints.

Technologies are needed that will provide enhanced trace detection capabilities, including increased throughput, increased percent detection (Pd) and decreased percent false alarm (Pfa) via specific identification of the threat with spiral up-gradable threat libraries, and sampling technologies to anticipate emerging threats while maintaining current ETD performance and life-cycle cost standards.
