Resolve - Handheld Through-Barrier Identification · The system works in three modes: A New Capability for Hazmat, EOD and Law Enforcement Hazmat Search / Law Enforcement Military

Resolve - Handheld Through-Barrier Identification

Resolve™ Handheld Through-Barrier Identification

...DETECT through opaque and coloured barriers

SAFE - No need to open or disturb containers

FAST - Accurate ID of chemicals and mixtures in ~1 minute, no sample prep or consumables

RUGGED - Built to withstand tough environments

USER-FRIENDLY - Large buttons, simple interface, designed for use in protective gear

Resolve is the world’s only handheld

Raman system that enables true through-

barrier identification of hazardous or

contraband materials. Resolve rapidly detects

and identifies materials from comprehensive

libraries including explosives, precursors, toxic

industrial chemicals, chemical warfare agents

and narcotics. Cobalt’s unique handheld SORS™

technology enables positive identification

through a wide range of sealed non-metallic

containers, barriers and packaging.

A new capability in CBRNE detection

Resolve differs from conventional

handheld Raman ID systems, which

typically only operate with line-of-sight

to the sample under investigation.

The system works in three modes:

Through-Barrier mode - Identifies through non-metallic, sealed containers such as coloured and opaque plastics, glass, paper, wrapping, sacks and fabrics.

Surface Scan mode - Line-of-sight measurements, similar to conventional Raman ID systems.

Vial Holder mode - Quickly identifies materials contained within glass vials in a custom holder.

FOR EXAMPLE ...

Conventional handheld Raman systems are typically limited to

operation through clear plastic bags or clear glass vials. If materials

are concealed behind thicker, coloured or opaque barriers it can be

necessary to open and take a sample. In hazardous material response

scenarios, opening or disturbing containers can increase risk to the

operator and, in some cases, the public. Taking samples can also

unnecessarily disturb crime scene evidence.

Resolve’s through-barrier capabilities enable response teams to

identify container contents early in an operation, prior to escalation.

This allows information about the situation to be gathered quickly

and efficiently, enabling better critical decision making.

Safer operation - Keep hazards contained

Efficient – Removes the need to take

samples, move objects and waste valuable

time in PPE

Preserves evidence - Crime scenes remain

intact with containers undisturbed

Make decisions faster - Get complete,

accurate information earlier in the operation

Increasing the Power of Handheld Raman ID

Conventional Raman IDConventional Raman systems require line-of- sight so can work with clear plastic bags / vials and some translucent packaging

Resolve extends through-barrier capability to work with a wide range of non-metallic containers

True Through-Barrier Detection & Identification

ID THROUGH SEALED CONTAINERS

VERSATILE MEASUREMENT MODES

Non-contact mode

Resolve can do everything

conventional handheld

Raman systems do but adds

the capability to identify

materials through barriers.

The system can also operate

in ‘non-contact’ mode

(16mm from the sample),

and vial holder mode.

True Through-Barrier Detection & Identification Intuitive Interface - Clear Results

Resolve combines a tough handheld

unit with a simple, user-friendly

interface. Ruggedized and hardened,

the system is built to withstand harsh

environments. The software interface

is extremely simple to use – Full system

control requires only 7 large, responsive

buttons, which are ideal for gloved use,

even in level A PPE.

Operational managers can fully

customise workflows, laser arming

passwords and the format of results

and associated meta data.

Removable nose cone for contact and non-contact scan modes. In-field calibration and performance check is built into a protective nose cap

Large 4.7 inch display - clear, high contrast graphics for use in all light conditions

Large buttons with positive feedback – designed for gloved use

Li ion battery pack for up to 4 hours continuous use

Measurement

Conduct through-barrier, surface

or vial holder scans. Measurements

typically take ~ 1 minute (or less

in some modes of operation).

Operators can reduce laser power

and set a scan delay where necessary.
