Hand-held radiation detectors
Smiths Detection is developing a handheld and backpack Human Portable Radiation Detection System (HPRDS) under a contract awarded by the US Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Domestic Nuclear Detection Office (DNDO). The HPRDS will be used by emergency responders, border patrol agents, customs and coast guard officers and other law enforcement officers. The detectors can identify and determine the location of incoming radiation and will reliably discriminate between normally-occurring radioactive materials and potential threats.
