The 21st century soldier needs to be equipped with new generation of wearable sensors to be informed against all threats, both visible and invisible such as deadly chemical warfare agents (CWAs). Thanks to the exceptional properties of graphene, 2D materials and advanced printing technologies it is possible to design sensing devices for rapid detection of low-concentrations of toxic volatile organic chemicals. The aim of this project is to develop new wearable chemo-resistive sensors based on graphene that are wireless, low-cost, and provide rapid, continuous information about deadly airborne CWAs. This project will allow Australian Defence to access new cutting-edge technology and capabilities to be ready for Detection 2040 challenges.
