運用新科技對毒品犯罪防制之探討

Application of Novelty Technology on Prevention of Illegal Drug Use and Crime

由於使用毒品對人體造成短期與長期的健康影響，甚至增加社會與醫療 成本支出，所以受到各國的重視。近幾年，毒品已侵入各種場域，可能導 致青少年吸毒而影響健康，甚至導致青少年輟學、犯罪、販毒等，毒品氾濫 對國家發展的傷害不容小覷。雖然有許多預防工作進行中，但傳統的預防方 式已漸露疲態，成效有限，為突破困境及跟上時代的腳步，結合科技之相關 示例如雨後春筍般，蓬勃發展。在成癮物質防制領域亦開始有科技應用之實 例。有鑒於此，針對現階段應用新興科技之毒品防制案例，包含數位學習平 台、虛擬實境、擴增實境、拉曼光譜分析儀，做一簡單介紹，以了解目前科 技應用之現況，並討論未來防治工作之挑戰，以提供實務人員、專家學者、 及相關單位、政府部門等作一參考。

Illegal drug use has received the attention worldwide because it causes the short-term and long-term health hazards, and increases social and medical costs. In recent years, drugs have invaded many fields, which may make young people access illegal drugs and damage their health as well as lead to school dropouts, crimes, drug trafficking, etc. The risks of drug use on the future of the nation should not be underestimated. Although there are numerous preventive approaches in progress, the traditional preventive methods have become unattractive and limitedly effective. Integrating with technology, innovative approaches have mushroomed and flourished to overcome barriers and lined up with the state-of-the-art. From the point of view, the current drug preventive approaches using advanced technologies including digital learning platform, virtual reality, augmented reality, and Raman spectroscopy, were briefly introduced to elaborate the development of technology applications on illegal drug use preventive approaches. The challenges of future prevention programs show simultaneously to provide insights towards practitioners, professionals, and staff of related units and government departments.
