iRobot (ticker: IRBT) releases new product poster on their Seaglider UUV incorporating PGT's Scintillator Detector
News, March 07 2012, iRobot new product
iRobot new product poster highlights their Seaglider, a long-range, high-endurance Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UVV) for surveillance and monitoring missions that covers thousands of kilometers, for months at a time and at the fraction of the cost of traditional equipment. iRobot partnered with Princeton Gamma-Tech Instruments to integrate into their Seaglider an underwater scintillation detector to locate radioactive debris. The poster shows data collected in the seas off Japan around the damaged Fukushima nuclear reactors, looking for I-131, Cs-134 and Cs-137. Mapping a larger area allows for more targeted survey points and increased data resolution.
