Abstract

See full text

The disclosure provides for a portable device for detecting hazardous agents, including explosives using SWIR hyperspectral imaging. The device may comprise a collection optics, a SWIR multi-conjugate filter, a SWIR camera, and a display. The device may also comprise an RGB camera. The disclosure also provides for a method of using said portable device wherein interacted photons are collected and passed through a SWIR multi-conjugate filter. The interacted photons are detected to generate at least one SWIR hyperspectral image. The SWIR hyperspectral image may be analyzed to determine the presence or absence of a hazardous agent on a target. An RGB image of a target may also be generated and analyzed to survey a sample scene.
