Portable Vapor Generating Device for Canine Training (e-Canine Non-Detonable Training Device)

The technology currently used for working dog training in real-world scenarios is ineffective. Training is expensive, difficult to coordinate, and does not allow for the highly controlled release of various odors. Training materials can also cross contaminate the training setting or not release enough odor for proper detection. Once the training is completed, sample materials often require costly disposal methods since they contain dangerous contraband.

The Portable Vapor Generating Device for Canine Training (e-CNTD) has been designed by researchers at the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to regulate odor release rates from safe and effective training materials. The innovation provides more control for the trainer and smart heating profiles designed to release the right amount of odor for each training setting. Adding to the ease of use is a remote controller that can be used over 200 feet away from the system. The training materials are also contained within fiberglass sheets, providing safe handling and easy disposal.
