Paige, can you explain to me what this means:
"...Apparently, “significant stand-off distance” is 12 inches away from a 4 inch sample (scroll down the patent app. a bit, it’s in paragraph 0018) which, to me, doesn’t seem to be that far away as it still requires the user to be “suited up” in a potential hazmat situation..."
What is a four inch sample? What does that mean?
It certainly doesn't sound like trace! LOL
I wonder how close you have to be for a sample "invisible to the naked eye"? What is the sensitivity limit and how long does it take to shoot a trace sample? Guess they don't want to tell us about that or maybe they still haven't figured it out themselves.
Sounds SOOOO familiar doesn't it?!
One of the reasons you get confused is because you believe the BS Loch/CDEX have been broadcasting for years. As always, they leave out pertinent information required to thoroughly evaluate the product.
..."maybe we are field testing the UV meth gun with rays safe enough to be used on Humans..for trace pickup"
The meth gun uses UV, not x-rays. Whether the UV range is safe enough to zap a person's skin I don't know, I haven't read what range the gun uses.
"The illicit drug detector that morphs into the x-ray floresence to shoot into and thru the closed containers and also take on the Counterfeit Drug Detector?"
Sorry Paige, that would require "the new physics" that our late friend Artabraham coined. X-rays cannot detect drugs and can only detect explosives which contain high Z atoms- metals. If you visit the RB-CDEX board, you can read an dialogue between Art and I concerning Loch/CDEX and their fantasy products. Two completely different POV, but we both agreed that we'll just have to wait and see who would be right in the end.
And don't count on a meth gun the size of a cell phone. That sounds just like the BS about an ELF landmine detector with the build in heads-up helmet containing GPS!
New research has the promise of shrinking many trace detection technologies down to very small packages, among those technoilogies are Mass Spectroscopy, Ion Mobility Spectroscopy and Chromatography. Ahura uses stand-off spectroscopy similar to CDEX and they claim that they'll be able to shrink their package down to "a large cell phone".
Unfortunately there's a big difference between CDEX, which is a one pony show and Ahura, which is a fully integrated company with the capability of fabricating their own minuturized custom chips (ASIC) and optics packages in house! If you want to be impressed with bios, read about there research/engineering staff. They're hands-on and not just on the BOD to impress Sassy! LOL (Just kidding Sassy)
IMO, the chances of CDEX coming up with a cell phone size unit are near zero.
But the good news is that the meth gun was actually able to detect a large crystal of meth! LOL
