Until now world wide commercial and military explosives detection systems detect explosives up to appx. 90 m range, when the STANDARDmilitary minimum safety distance for the minimum quantity of explosives(1/2 pound of TNT) is 300 m (NATO standard).
Dangerous to use explosives detection systems from short distances < 300 meters
Impossible until today to prevent terrorists orsaboteurs to reach their targets without beingdetected.

MEDIUM area protection
Near Area to be protected
Perimeter to be protected
Perimeter to be protected : Is the perimeter area 1 - 2 km around the shipNear Area to be protected : Is an area (3-5 km) in front of the perimeter area, so far enough that if an explosive detected there, the task force has enough time to act and neutralized terrorists, before they could insert to the perimeter area.MEDIUM area protection : Is the area (5-10 km), far enough, that the task force has enough time to act and neutralized terrorists that moving with explosives on a boat, a ship, etc before they could insert to the near area to be protected.

How it Works
1. Define the area of search to be conducted2. Understand the geography of the location3. Collect the data and furnish the profarma (Annexure-1)4. Scan the area from three different locations P1, P2 and P3 as shown in the Picture
The localization of explosive area occurs when there is only one explosive is plantedin the location. The localized are 5m to 50m radius depends upon the quantity andtype of the explosives. (Note here that the magnetic field of each material/compositionof the material depend on the type of material and the quantity of the material used inthe explosive) Conduct the search operation with the conventional methods to traceout the Explosive. Defuse the explosive

How it Works(System Interaction)
The kyklotron engine modulates a specific EM emmission tuned to the explosive
The created EMF modulated by the electron-vibration activity energizes mostlyNitrogen based explosives.
This primary magnetic field interferes with other environmental present EMF’s andcreates the necessary conditions for interaction, which appears between the KYKLOTRON TB SENSOR and the explosives containing N (ions NO2, NO3) and O-(oxygen negative ion)

How it Works(Technical Details)
KYKLOTRON TB ® forms a Modulated EMF that allows detection of all types of explosives, weapons and ammunitions within a distance between 0 and 20000 meters behind and through alltypes of obstacles (including concrete, steel etc.).
Magnetic fields are not affected from any given barrier, whichmeans that KYKLOTRON E3® can detect explosives hidden behindconcrete walls, metal cases etc. and is especially useful in covertscenarios.
The detection of explosives is achieved with the cross bearingmethod (Antenna used as a pointer), showing the direction ofinterference.
