The Department of Homeland Security says that development is underway on a Star Trek style tricorder that can monitor a person's medical condition from 40 feet away.
The so-called Standoff Patient Triage Tool (SPTT) is described in glowing terms by the inhouse journal of the Department of Homeland Security's Science and Technology Directorate, S&T Snapshots. The DHS S&T boys are people who also intend to give the world the puke ray light-sabre and the lobster-beam scanner.
