Direct detection experiments search for the rare signature of a WIMP recoil with ordinary nucleus.
A large number of experiments with different techniques will be vying for the prized catch and will

prospects of the leading experiment in the field, named Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS),
and the prospects of other competing technologies.
