ABSTRACT:
Sticky polymeric particles are planted upon a site to be remotely monitored over a substantial future time period for the presence of toxic target agents. An airborne vehicle positioned over the site directs a laser beam toward the site and if one or more toxic agents are present at the site, a return beam is produced having one or more known spectral signatures corresponding to the toxic target agents which are recognized by a photospectrometer in the airborne vehicle. Alternatively, a chemiluminescent reaction between the toxin and the particles can produce an alarm condition right at the monitored site.
