Devices Medgadgets / / December 19, 2019
Have you tried to measure background radiation close to home or work? Converged whether the findings with officials? If you have not tried, now is the time to look comfortable dosimeter and start the measurement.
ZIVE
ZIVE is a full survey instrument based system - standard Geiger counter. The gadget is able to indicate all the necessary information by means of its own screen. In addition, ZIVE can be synchronized with your smartphone for added convenience, and the information - to send to the server for the formation of an actual radioactive contamination map.
A dosimeter can be used to monitor the environment and to test subjects: food, buildings, equipment and purchased items. ZIVE It possesses industrial precision and is able to work in the background, notifying the user of the danger. Using your smartphone at the same time is not mandatory.

SMTGEG4S / Smart Geiger
The Japanese have invented a tiny device known as SMTGEG4S: Geiger counter, which connects to the smartphone via the headphone jack. The device is designed for gadgets on Android and iOS. measured current
background radiation and the accumulated dose of radiation. However, unlike ZIVE, an error of as much as 30%. The cost in Japan - about 40 dollars.For Russian buyers have a copy of a series of analyzers sold under the brand FTLab (there are still UV sensor, infra-red radiation, temperature, voltmeter and so on). Smart Geiger works with a proprietary application based on Android and iOS.

Lapka
Set accessories for iPad iPhone or in the form of small blocks. This includes four device for determining the level of radiation, humidity, temperature, electromagnetic radiation, as well as a module for measuring the amount of nitrates in the products. According to the developers, additional equipment and calibration is not required. Accessories can run unattended during the day and more.
The sensors are connected to the audio jack of any Apple-device. Appendix companion independently manages the process, measures and analyzes the environmental necessary environment settings. In the application, you can choose ready-made profiles settings for specific types of products: in case of exceeding the permissible content of nitrates Lapka tell you about it. Perhaps the construction of informative charts for a specific period of time.

Terra MKS-05
Professional device for determining the contamination and the amount of radiation received. To assess the situation requires only 10 seconds (this is one of the best performances among portable dosimeters).
For other gadgets in an article the manufacturer carries much less responsibility. "Terra" also corresponds to the regulations, the factory has a stamp on metrological verification is gostirovannym device.
"Terra MKS-05" displays the required data on your own screen in real time. Syncs with smartphones Only modification with Bluetooth-module.

Atom Tag
This attachment to the smartphone is a cross between ZIVE and Smart Geiger: a simple, but fairly accurate dosimeter. In it hides a Geiger counter with electronic circuitry, Bluetooth 4.0 module and a lithium-ion battery. Intended for household and industrial measurements, experiments and demonstrations, but not gostirovan so officially produces data with sufficiently high accuracy.
Atom Tag works in conjunction with the tablet or smartphone Android or iOS, if no signaling connection becomes (The threshold at which the user will be alert, you need to configure in advance), processes and stores data.

DO-RA
DO-RA It is a full dosimeter-radiometer based on a semiconductor detector and is able to collect data about the alpha, beta and gamma radiation. It works with smartphones and tablets via USB-port, or remotely (via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi). Can both be fed by the internal battery or from a gadget which is synchronized.
Dosimeter is able to determine the current background radiation, Publicize the admissible limit and unacceptable dose of radiation, generate graphs of organs and systems the owner of the mobile device, depending on the cumulative dose received or even make recommendations about behavior. In addition, the gadget automatically generates reports about radioactive background area in real-time time coordinates from GPS and GLONASS satellites and transmits them to the center of the analysis of the radiation situation.
There are several options for DO-RA-specific smartphones (some of them are iPhone, HTC, etc.). Who can buy a device to contact the manufacturer of one of the phones official website.
bonus
For those who do not want to pay more for extra features, there are a lot of simple but effective homemade options:
- for Android;
- for iPhone;
- on based on the old Soviet dosimeter;
- as homemade cell phone.
