A Location Aware Radiation Monitoring System (ALARMS)

Minimizing radiation exposure of workers can now be much easier thanks to a NIEHS Grant to further the development of A Location Aware Radiation Monitoring System developed by Q-Track. As shown in the demonstration, by merging Q-Track's location data with radiation dosimetry data, one is able to map out and identify potentially dangerous levels of radiation. The radiation map updates immediately as workers with dosimeter/location tags move through the area. This radiation mapping provides a prompt indication of emerging problems and enables workers to avoid the radiation hazard reducing dose and making a safer work environment.
