According to the American Association of Poison Control Centers, there are more than 3.1 million poison control calls each year in the U.S., and a significant percentage are for children who have ingested a household toxin.  If the child is unable to communicate or is unconscious, a rapid in situ chemical identification could allow the first responder to quickly determine the most effective treatment. This would be achieved via an in vivo scan of the mouth, nose and throat and/or by scanning the supposed source(s) of the toxin.  This is among the theoretical applications of the WingMan DDD™, which could be potentially life saving.
