Arktis Radiation Detectors Ltd.
Arktis - Radiation Detector Drone
Uncrewed Aerial System (UAS) for radiation mapping and source search. This radiation detecting drone can map an area of 10’000 m2 in a single flight of 20 minutes. The system is about 50 x more sensitive than typical drone-based detectors.Most popular related searches

Flying a tight search pattern, it can map radiation at speeds of 2 m/s. Equipped with a large area Flat Panel Gamma (FPG)
detector, the system can rapidly find and localize radioactive sources.
This tool is indispensable to prepare for– or react to – a reactor accident, locating stolen radioactive sources or inspecting bulk goods for excess radioactivity.
Best-in-class performance
- Large area detector (300 cm2) with very high sensitivity
- Unbeatable for large area search missions
- Spectral distinction between artificial sources and Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM)
- LIDAR-based altitude measurement enables precise altitude compensation and ground projection of dose rate
- Minimal power consumption allows 20-minute missions per battery
Ease of operation
- Minimal setup time
- Computer assisted mission planning allows rapid deployment with minimal training
- Mission control software has intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) for flight control, data taking and analysis
- Outdoor and indoor (IP54 or better)
- Interoperable with Arktis and 3rd party systems
“Finally an airborne detector sensitive enough to rapidly deliver high count statistics”
Typical applications include
- Wide area search for radioactive sources
- Contamination mapping
- Defining exclusion zones following radiological incident
- Venue profiling in preparation of large events
- Targeted primary screening of vehicles, boats, small aircraft
