Application of Immersed of Nano-Sensors in Soap to Detect WMD on Transportation Equipment

The Department of Homeland security is concerned with detecting weapons of mass destruction, nuclear radiation and other such things, which may end up in shipping containers or in trucks inside the continental United States. Most Homeland security experts and consultants agree it is impossible to check every single cargo container coming into the United States or every single truck, which drives up on the road.

Instead we must rely on high-tech sensors, organic dog sniffers and electronic equipment, which allows us to look inside the containers as they drive by. I propose yet another idea; I propose using nano sensors which can work in a net centric fashion and communicate with each other and turn color if they encounter radiation or any number of contaminants, which would be consider weapons of mass destruction that might be inside the container.

Further, I propose that these annals sensors be applied to the containers and the trucks at the time they are washed. By immersing these nano sensors in the soap that is used to clean the transportation equipment, boxes and cargo containers we should be able to have everything we need to ensure that weapons of mass distraction do not get into our country. Please consider all this in 2006.
