Aerial Radiation Detection

In this time of multiple threats to our security: dirty bomb; cyber; shooters in public places; homemade bombs; misinformation; etc. we feel extremely vulnerable; perhaps more vulnerable than ever before.
Arial Radiation Detection

With the advent of Drone technology now available to private citizens, the technology previously only held by the military, the opportunity has come to merge Drone Technology with aerial sensors. UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) mounted aerial sensors are typically: thermal, radar, camera, and surveillance, to monitor the environment for threats and for filming, now airborne radiation and chemical threats can be detected.
The DroneSensor systems. Radiation detection instruments mounted on the DroneRAD and the DroneCHEM for aerial radiation and chemical detection, surveillance, and locating. Technical Associates, a division of US Nuclear Corp, provides sensors for both airborne radiation and for the search and locating of radioactive materials: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Neutron. Gas filter sample collection for chlorine, biological particulates, and aerosols such as anthrax and nerve gas is also available via the DroneRAD.
Technical Associates with partner FlyCam UAV provide the DroneSensor Detector System: Rugged, all-weather, heavy lift UAVs with controllers and hardshell case, radiation, chemical with real-time wireless data download and bacterial samplers; the software and readout technology and ground station; and optional flight and software training.
Nuclear radiation sensor instrumentation suitable for Drone application is new to the market place. The DroneSensor System has a widely diverse application and includes conducting Gamma and/or Neutron Radiation Surveys of the ground, buildings, and vehicles, Uranium Surveys of landfills and K-40; Background Radiation Surveys for construction and development, and Airborne Hazards with the DroneRAD and surveillance of gas and oil pipelines for leaks of hazardous gases with the DroneCHEM.
TheDroneSensor system is versatile and has an approximate launch time of five minutes.

Autonomous Airborne Radiation Monitoring system

Complete UAV radiation mapping drone system US Nuclear UAV radiation mapping drone offers an accurate, affordable and versatile low-altitude aerial radiation detection vehicle which is an out of the box solution for anyone that needs to examine an area or patrol a location for radiation levels or contamination. The system gives you real-time location, measurement and mapping of radioactivity with isotope identification. UAV radiation and mapping drone: what do you get 1. Aerial unmanned drone A Small Unmanned Aircraft System (SUAS) with an all up weight less than 7.0 kg. This low total mass, coupled with the in-built redundancy of the aerial system represents a low risk of structural damage to buildings and the environment during its operation. This is in line with UK CAA guidelines. The drone has a number of supporting sensor: positioning fixing (Latitude and Longitude) by multi GNSS (GPS and Glonass), number of satellites and height above mean sea level (AMSL); tem...

NGM 202L™ (Gas Monitor)

The NGM 202L monitor continuously measures the volumetric activity of noble gas and tritium in a radioactive effluent gaseous samples. FEATURES: Dynamic gamma radiation compensation Compact and reliable Minimum periodic maintenance DESCRIPTION: The NGM 202L monitor forms part of the RAMSYS™ product line. It has been developed to continuously sample the volumetric activity of noble gas and tritium in a radioactive effluent gaseous sample. This monitor can operate as a stand alone device or in conjunction with a particulate monitor (ABPM 201™ monitor), iodine monitor (IM 201™ monitor) and with a high range noble gas monitor (NGM 203™ monitor) to form a very wide range monitoring system.

WHY USE AGRICULTURE DRONES? MAIN BENEFITS AND BEST PRACTICES

How drone technology works To gain a better understanding of drones use in agriculture, let’s take a closer look at drone technology. Typically, a drone construction includes propulsion and navigation systems, GPS, sensors and cameras, programmable controllers as well as equipment for automated flights. The technology used for UAV drones for agriculture are built in a way that enables them to capture more accurate information than airplanes and satellites are capable of collecting. Drone-based aggrotech software processes the collected data and delivers it in an easy-to-read format.  All in all, the data collection process in the case of agriculture drones includes four logical steps: 1. Indicating flight parameters:  Outlining and evaluating the surveillance area and uploading GPS info into the drone navigation system. 2. Autonomous flights:  A UAV drone carries out a flight pattern according to the pre-established parameters and collects the required data. 3. Data uploa...
