Gemini FTIR/Raman Handheld Analyzer
Because every second counts
The rugged, compact Gemini Analyzer meets the demanding requirements of elite military and public safety forces, helping operators execute their mission quickly, safely, and accurately.
The industry standard
- The right tool for all missions
- Easy to understand and use
- Rugged and strong
Finished products in small, difficult to detect packets is the latest trend in drug trafficking. With low concentrations of very toxic drugs becoming increasingly common, the Gemini Analyzer with LowDoseID is a valuable addition to the analytical detection and identification toolbox of law enforcement and border protection and will doubtless save lives.

Redefining how agencies perform narcotic and chemical identification
Featuring low concentration identification capabilities for street narcotics, the Gemini Analyzer with Low Dose ID is the newest tool in stopping the distribution of illicit drugs.
Scan formats
Gemini offers two formats for scanning. ID mode is ideal for advanced users looking for chemical identification. Screener mode offers a simpler interface, focused on low concentration narcotics detection.
Intuitive operation for any user
The graphical interface ensures that minimal training is required for proficiency. For new users, the Scan Assist feature guides technology selection with a series of easy questions. The consistent interface and workflow across technologies ensure that experienced operators can easily proceed with sampling.
Scan delay
In addition to the Raman scan delay, adjustable laser power, and other built-in safety features, Gemini introduces the industry’s first FTIR scan delay, enabled by the motorized anvil.
Flexible input
Operators can easily navigate features using either the tactile keypad or resistive touch screen, even when wearing protective gloves.
3 Technologies in 1
Complementary and confirmatory
Raman and FTIR are highly specific and reliable identification methods, each with strengths and limitations. By integrating both into a single analyzer, operators harness the power of each technology while enabling a broader range of chemical identification.
SERS - low concentration analysis
By utilizing the enhanced hardware and software of the Gemini analyzer, combined with SERS (Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy), Gemini is able to deliver low concentration analysis and results for key narcotics.
Designed for survivability
From extreme climates to aggressive handling, Gemini has been certified to the latest military standards for ruggedness—drop, shock, vibration, temperature, immersion and much more.
