Overview:
A portable detection backpack for revealing the presence of radioactive materials in the environment. The high efficiency of the scintillation crystal allows to perform a measurement in few minutes. GammaEDU can identify industrial, medical and naturally occurring radioactive isotopes in static and dynamic acquisition.
With the GammaEDU Android application the students can acquire and analyze in real time a g-ray spectrum to get the K, U and Th abundances, keep note of the surrounding environment, take the GPS coordinates and shoot a picture of the on-going measurement. The data are saved in a kmz file ready to be visualized on Google Earth and shared on Google Drive for producing a radioactivity map of the area.
