6.3.2 Radiation detection with open-source Geiger counters
There are many scientists and engineers that work with radioactive materials and may find it
useful to have a low-cost, reliable, open-source radiation detector. In addition, many “citizen
scientists” may be interested in obtaining reliable first-hand information about dangers near a
nuclear power plant accident or other forms of radioactive release.
There are several OSH Geiger counters available. For example, the design of the Libelium
and the source code is released under GPL (discussed in
Chapter 2
). In addition, there is an
