A spatially-aware radiation probe system/method allowing for detection and correction of radiation readings based on the position and/or movement of a radiation detector is disclosed. The system incorporates a radiation detector combined with a spatially-aware sensor to permit detection of spatial context parameters associated with the radiation detector and/or object being probed. This spatial context information is then used by analysis software to modify the detected radiation values and/or instruct the radiation probe operator as to appropriate measurement activity to ensure accurate radiation measurements. The spatially-aware sensor may include but is not limited to: distance sensors to determine the distance between the radiation detector and the object being monitored; accelerometers integrated within the radiation detector to detect movement of the radiation detector; and/or axial orientation sensors to determine the axial orientation of the radiation detector.

Spatially-aware radiation probe system and method

A radiation detector system/method implementing a corrected energy response detector is disclosed. The system incorporates charged (typically tungsten impregnated) injection molded plastic that may be formed into arbitrary detector configurations to affect radiation detection and dose rate functionality at a drastically reduced cost compared to the prior art, while simultaneously permitting the radiation detectors to compensate for radiation intensity and provide accurate radiation dose rate measurements. Various preferred system embodiments include configurations in which the energy response of the detector is nominally isotropic, allowing the detector to be utilized within a wide range of application orientations. The method incorporates utilization of a radiation detector so configured to compensate for radiation counts and generate accurate radiation dosing rate measurements.
