A device that actually works for most explosives, the Syft (1) Voice 200, is the size of a fridge, weighs significantly more and retails at several hundred thousand dollars. It will detect volatile organic compounds in air, and in microscopic amounts, but as far as I know does not seem to have been used for bomb detection. It seems that you need to be better at selling snake oil than at actually solving the problem to win in this space. They do operate out of the back of vans, and I can imagine them at checkpoints constantly scanning the air around cars. But I guess they are focussing on other markets.
