ECBC Technology NeedsECBC Technology Needs
• Rapid sample preparation for point biological detection– A clean, concentrated sample is the first, and possibly most important step in
achieving fast and accurate detection of biological materials– Today’s tedious, manual process is difficult for non-technical military personnel to
perform in the field• Standoff detection technologies, to include airborne and surface
signatures for CW and explosives– More important than ever to detect a threat from a distance to ensure safety of troops– Much progress in last few years in areas of biological detection from standoff
distances– Explosives detection an extension of our forensic and analytical methodology
competencies• Non-aggressive decontamination technologies for sensitive equipment
– Need capability of destroying the agent without damaging nearby computer systems, electronics, sophisticated equipment
– Interested in new materials approaches as well as different application technologies– Building capability into existing materiel so no additional logistical burden highly
desirable • High performance, low risk obscurants covering visible, IR, and
microwave frequencies– Enemy sensor and seeking technology is improving so obscurant progress is
essential. Need to move toward bi-spectral obscurants– High yield and high extinction coefficient: two most critical performance measures– New technologies must balance high performance with low impact on human health
and environment• New adsorbents for toxic industrial chemicals
– Expand capability to address more threats without increasing size of filter or adding bulk
– Interested in technologies that may not involve adsorbents
