Description
In the event of a radiological emergency first responders and critical personnel put themselves in harm’s way for the health and safety of the public. Critical to maintaining the health of individuals working in an emergent situation is to accurately monitor their radiological exposure and keep it within safe or acceptable limits. In order to overcome challenges in non-standardized radiological monitoring equipment, low connectivity environments, and in implementing and adhering to rapidly evolving radiation exposure limits, Intelligent Automation, Inc. proposes RADAVERSE. RADAVERSE is a smart device application that interfaces with radiation detectors, analyzes and interprets the incoming signal to return actionable insights to the user, and can communicate these insights with other RADAVERSE users via mesh network. The inclusion of GPS-based radiation mapping will enable a more rapid identification of high radiation areas in the event of a radiological incident, minimizing radiation exposure to other users and maximizing the response capacity of leadership.
