A chemical discrimination system based on photonic reservoir computing is demonstrated
experimentally for the first time. The system is inspired by the way humans perceive and …

A fully bio-inspired apparatus to perform non-spectroscopic sensing to discriminate and
determine the constituent concentrations of a chemical mixture is proposed. Here, fully bio …

This paper describes the application of a human color vision approach to infrared (IR)
chemical sensing for the discrimination between multiple explosive materials deposited on …

An optical-filter-based sensor that was designed to mimic human color vision was recently
developed. This sensor uses three mid-infrared optical filters to discriminate between …

Color vision results from the interaction of retinal photopigments with reflected or transmitted
visible light. The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) developed the CIE color …

Detection of concealed hazardous materials is a pressing need for the global defense
community. To address this need, the development of reliable and readily-deployable …

Increasing the selectivity of sensors, while at the same time reducing their complexity, size
and cost, are challenges to the sensing community. To this end, an area of exploration has …

Here we describe the performance of a recently developed infrared-based chemical sensor
for detecting liquid chemical hazards on surfaces at stand-off distances. This sensor uses …

The proliferation of chemical threats in the modern world requires the development of new,
low cost, flexible sensors, with the ability to be widely deployed. Ideally these sensors will be …

Field detection of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) threats
requires the development of highly selective sensors with low size, weight, power and cost …
