Working with Lockheed Martin Corporation, Sandia developed the patented SnifferSTAR™, a half-ounce sensor intended to ride on small, aerial drones to detect possible nerve or blister gas attacks on cities or military facilities. It improves on similar technologies by offering rapid analysis in a small, lightweight, low-power package. The device may also be used in building ventilation or on posts surrounding military bases.
