AIRDOS04 - Specialized Cosmic Radiation Dosimeter for Airliners

AIRDOS04

The upgraded version of AIRDOS02 airborne detector. The instrument is designed primarily for the dosimetry of cabin crew and flight attendants of commercial flights. A detailed description of the use is in the user manual.

Where to get it?

AIRDOS04 is commercially available from Universal Scientific Technologies s.r.o., write an email to [email protected]. The device is designed as open-source hardware and software and is released under the GPLv3 license. The device was initially developed and maintained by UST (Universal Scientific Technologies s.r.o.) company, which sells it commercially and offers technical support.
