Abstract: The dielectrophoretic force caused by the non-uniform electric field squared spatial gradient three-dimensional pattern uniquely exhibited by a predetermined type of entity can be detected by a locator device. A human operator holds the device in hand to thereby electrically and dielectrically connect the device to the human operator. The human operator's naturally occurring very low electrical decay time constant is increased through electronic circuitry externally connected to the device. The device is held in a balanced nearly horizontal state, and the operator scans the device in a constant speed uniform linear motion back and forth. An antenna extends from the front of the device, and both are acted on by the dielectrophoretic force.

Abstract: A composition of matter utilizes an exact dielectric replicate matching reference material to make a detection device component that triggers and maximizes a dielectrokinesis (phoresis) phenomena (force, torque, energy replenishment), which can be used to detect the presence of specific entities of a predetermined type that contain as a major component the matching dielectric material. Different designs and materials of construction for the detection device component enable the detection of a variety of specific entities including human beings, animals, plastics, metals, water, etc. Detectors using the component can detect the present of a specific entity irrespective of the presence or absence of any type of intervening, visual obstructing material structures or barriers, lighting conditions, weather conditions or electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Abstract: A current detector and metering circuit is provided for a dielectrokinesis detecting device. This device is particularly useful in the areas of locating obscured entities, such as human beings, animals, materials, or controlled substances. A current detector is attached to an antenna and detects when subtle changes in the dielectrokinesis occurs within an detection environment. The present current detector automatically zeros itself to ambient electric field values and then has a heightened sensitivity for changes in that electrical field caused by changes in the dielectrokinesis. The present invention can be used for detection of hidden entities or substance, for motion detection, for medical diagnostic detection, and other uses.

Abstract: A dielectrokinesis detector includes a chamber housing an exact dielectric replicate reference material that is subjected to external static electrification. The reference material is mechanically constrained, enabling the detection of the polarization energy dynamics of constrained dielectrophoretic force indicating the presence of any target with dielectric properties identical to the properties of the reference material. An antenna assembly increases the proximity distance (range) of detection. The static electrification source for the reference material increases the longevity of the detection ability to provide continuous detection capability, and an external electronic circuit source of electrical energy via an electrical current surge gives a quantifiable manifestation of the detection.
