Marlborough Firm To Demo Lasers With DOD
Marlborough-based Block MEMS has won a contract from the U.S. Department of Defense to demonstrate its LaserScan products for possible adoption by the department's threat detection program.
LaserScan promises to offer a way to detect chemical threats in a standoff situation. Using lasers, the device detects and measures substances on surfaces from distances between six inches and two feet.
The contract was awarded by the DOD's Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical and Biological Defense.
Block MEMS is affiliated with Block Engineering, also of Marlborough.
