Description

Spectral Labs proposes the development of a radiation dosimeter capable of accurately measuring both prompt and residual gamma and neutron particles without saturating at the dose rates expected from a nuclear event. The proposed dosimeter will be capable of live readout but will typically operate in a low power sleep state for extended battery life, and the dosimeter will utilize a well-tested circuit design to provide immunity to the EMP effects associated with a nuclear event. Four separate sensor technologies are being integrated into the dosimeter to meet the requirements.
