New U.S. landmine detection method to reduce false alarm rates

Landmines pose a serious threat in conflict areas, yet modern detection systems struggle to discriminate between explosives and clutter. A project funded by the Army developed a new method for landmine identification that will greatly reduce false alarm rates.
The technology can be easily transported to conflict areas via Army unmanned ground vehicles such as the TALON from QinetiQ North America (Picture source: courtesy via U.S. Army CCDC Army Research Laboratory Public Affairs)
