Controlled Metal Detector Mounted on Mine Detection Robot
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2007 Landmine detection capability of metal detectors is very sensitive to the gap between buried landmines and the sensor heads. Therefore, human deminers manually scan ground surface with the metal detectors in such a manner that the sensor heads follow the

Monte Carlo modelling of a neutron-induced gamma-ray sensor for landmine or explosive detection
Journal of Radiation Research and Applied Sciences, 2018 Monte Carlo simulations were carried out to model a thermal neutron-induced gamma-ray sensor for anti-personnel-landmine (APM) or explosive detection. This is done by employing the thermal neutron prompt gamma activation (TNPGA) technique.
