NIRLab from 908 Devices gives every officer a simple, smart, and speedy way to presumptively identify and quantify common narcotics in seconds, while connecting drug field test results to real-time reporting and intelligence. Drug field testing helps agencies make faster decisions, improve officer safety, and see drug trends as they emerge, giving officers the complete picture, not just a presumptive answer.
NIRLab utilizes near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) for cannabis potency testing and common drug analysis. This drug field test identifies, quantifies potency, and collects results in a real-time intelligence platform to make informative decisions in the field, improving officer safety.
Cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, MDMA, and cannabis (CBD and THC) represent the most frequently encountered controlled substances in field operations, driving the majority of arrests, seizures, and prosecutions. Identify drugs in under five seconds with one-handed, single-button operation.
NIRLab requires no sample preparation, no reagents, no specialized training required. Detect drug mixtures of up to three components in a single scan. The device is easy to hold and comparable in size to an officer’s tactical flashlight.
