The 2007 High Priority Technical Needs Brochure[2] published by Homeland Security defines critical focus areas for Border and Maritime research, falling primarily under the categories of "border security": * Improved ballistic protection via personal protective equipment * Improve detection, tracking, and identification of all threats along the terrestrial and maritime border * Non-lethal compliance measures for vehicles, vessels, or aircraft allowing for safe interdiction by law enforcement personnel * Non-destructive tools that allow for the inspection of hidden or closed compartments to find contraband or security threats * Improved analysis and decision-making tools that will ensure the development/implementation of border security initiatives * Ability for law enforcement personnel to quickly identify the origin of gunfire and classify the type of weapon fired * Ability for law enforcement officers to assure compliance of lawful orders using non-lethal means "cargo security": * Enhanced screening and examination by non-intrusive inspection * Increased information fusion, anomaly detection, Automatic TargetRecognition capability * Detect and identify WMD materials and contraband * Capability to screen 100% of air cargo * Test the feasibility of seal security; Detection of intrusion * Track domestic high-threat cargo * Harden air cargo conveyances and containers * Positive ID of cargo & detection and "maritime security": * Wide-area surveillance from the coast to beyond the horizon; port and inland waterways region - detect, ID, and track * Data fusion and automated tools for command center operations * Vessel compliance through non-lethal compliance methods * Enhanced capability to continuously track contraband on ships or containers * Improved ballistic personal protective equipment for officer safety * Improved WMD detection equipment for officer safety; improved screening capability for WMD for maritime security checkpoints
