Measuring radioactivity with intelligent drones
In cooperation with the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre for Energy Research we have designed and developed a high dynamic range radiation dosimeter to be carried by small intelligent drones. Main features of the system:
- Stable onboard processing of raw radiation data in the range of 0.0002 - 10000 mGy/h
- Onboard logging with high spatial and temporal resolution
- Easy control and real time visualization of radiation heatmaps on dedicated ground station software
- Programmable drone behaviour based on measurements (e.g., automated source tracking)
- Precise, cooperative, spatially distributed measurements with drone swarms
