Radiation Monitoring Watch

Overview

The Radiation Monitoring Watch (RMW) is a lightweight, compact, and low power gamma radiation monitoring gadget in the form factor of a wristwatch. It indicates the prevailing dose rate, accumulated dose, and current date & time. It can assist Emergency Response Personnel, Police, Security Staff, and First Responders while attending radiological emergency. It can also be used by the visitors to a Nuclear Facility.RMW alerts the user with an audible alarm when the dose rate or accumulated dose exceeds the preset threshold.
