Radiation Sensor

Zistos Corporation of Holbrook, New York, has introduced the new VRAD radio­logi­cal video adaptor that cost-effectively adds radiological detection to fixed or mo­bile surveillance camera systems. Radiation levels and alarms are reported on a video overlay that appears over the surveillance video and can be viewed or re­corded on existing video surveillance hardware. The unit is powered by the existing camera and is packaged in a weatherproof enclosure that is easily mounted on a wall near the camera. The system is useful for generating an early warning of a dirty bomb or radiological materials in the vicinity.
