• 117th running of the Boston Marathon witnessed the same all-out-mobilization of officers, bomb-sniffing dogs and explosive specialists as was in place for the previous years race.

• Dogs swept the area for explosives twice before the first runners crossed the line –

Police Commissioner Davis said.

• 11 x K-9s were assigned (4 x Boston PD & 7 x Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority) Same as the previous year.

There was a NEW Security Gap – “Body-worn Explosives in transit”

What is a Vapor Wake K-9 Team?

• The Vapor Wake Detection (VWD) K-9 Team has the ability and training to detect carried or body-worn explosives. (Narcotics & Weapons)

• The VWD K-9 samples the plume of air coming off a person and/or what they are carrying as the person passes through a choke point or within a crowd.

• A VWD K-9 can also detect an explosives vapor-wake after the person has transited an area and follow the vapor-wake to the explosive source.

• The Vapor Wake K-9 is obedient to Odor, not People.

VIDEO Intro

Vapor Wake ® History

• 2001, Richard Ried (Shoe Bomber). • 2002, Auburn began developing Vapor Wake® • 2004, First Vapor Wake ® canine produced. • 2006, DHS Sponsored Test to prove technology. • 2010, Patent filed to Protect Vapor Wake® name and dynamic

odor trailing method. • 2012, Auburn Partnered with ITC Capital Partners / AMK9

Academy for commercial growth of the technology. • 2013, AMK9 Academy exclusively charged by Auburn University

to train Vapor Wake® dogs and students. • 2014 National Center for Spectator Sports Safety & Security

(NCS4) Approved Technology (2 week of lab testing) • 2015 Auburn Receive Patent for Vapor Wake® • 2016 AMK9 Forms a Vapor Wake Division due to increased

demand

ODOR PLUMES

•The Velocity Heat Transfer created is enough to provide an Active transportation system for particles.

•That Human Heat plumes were significantly greater and more dynamic than suspected.

•No Explosive component loss during plume transportation.

Through Penn State University work we learned;

K9 Productive Area is the plume

Using the Human Plume as an explosive particle transporter, Auburn trained their K9s on the vapor wake behind a person to provide a productive search area.

Vapor Wake ® Breed Selection

• Auburn University conducted a global search amongst working dog breeds for possible vapor wake detection candidates.

• The Labrador was favored (No1 domestic pet US, UK, Europe) for further

testing.

• Initial Vapor Wake concepts called for a non-intrusive, environmentally &

socially trained canine, which could be accepted by the public amongst which it would be searching.

Vapor Wake® PATENT

• In operation the, method is a "dog-driven" detection method which is distinguished from traditional canine detection methods which are "handler driven.”

• Vapor Wake® canines are trained to survey the air and detect explosive particles left behind in a person(s) wake, while they are in transit / moving.

• “Dynamic canine tracking method for hazardous and illicit substances”

• Vapor Wake® is a patented technology, patent number 8931327, developed by Auburn University.
