Saw this and my first thought was Shadowrun and throwing this at my players.

"Oh, it's just a drone dog - OH HOLY SHIT FLAMES UP THE SIDE OF MY FACE!!!"

We already have mechanical sniffers in airports that can detect explosives, so how difficult can it be to tune them to a person's unique scent? Next, we have drones that can walk like dogs and the option to load them with 'napalm' (or whatever flamethrowers burn). If I were a soldier marching onto a battlefield, I'd make VERY sure I had a pocket EMP on me at all times!

Sounds like a good idea. For the game, too.

I mean, theoretically they can. Despite all of the increased security and scanners, both the underwear and shoe bombers made it through security with no issue, and were caught afterwards.
