DetectaChem MobileNIR is a pocket-sized, smartphone-supported identification system that uses Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to identify chemical substances and determine substance concentrations in mixtures within seconds in the field. Working with the free MobileDetect App, it provides instant report generation and advanced AI-powered analysis, giving users deeper insight into test results and substance subcategories. MobileNIR can identify organic materials, drugs, narcotics, and explosives while easily scanning colored materials such as pills, cannabinoids, THC, CBD, mushrooms, kratom, and other organic substances. Its non-destructive scanning technology poses no ignition risk to black powders or other substances and creates no eye-safety hazards during operation.
