TeraView has consistently been at the forefront of the applications of terahertz technology in defense and homeland security since its inception.

A number of world firsts have been pioneered by TeraView:

• First to demonstrate that explosives have unique signatures in the terahertz frequency range
• First to demonstrate stand-off detection at > 1metre
• First to develop a hand-held wand prototype – the first practical terahertz system for use in homeland security applications
• First to image explosives in shoes

This work has led to the identification of a number of significant application areas for our technology.
