D-Tect - Mesh Networked Radiation Detector
The Rad-DX is a mesh networked radiation detector with sensitive scintillator crystals that can be mounted just about anywhere. The Rad-DX runs on the D-tect SensorNet, allowing the user to monitor a full network of Rad-DX units from a tablet or PC. Data including dose rates can be viewed real-time or from past event logs.
The Rad-DX operates on the D-tect SensorNet – an automatic communication network that allows users to monitor a full network of Rad-DXs as long as they are in range of a single Rad-DX system! The Rad-DX units will automatically form an intelligent, self-healing mesh network, allowing them to be constantly connected to each other as well as to the user network.
Like the rest of the D-tect radiation products, a sensitive scintillation detector allows the Rad-DX to detect even faint sources of radiation within 1 second.
Each Rad-DX can be controlled and monitored by a PC on the network with the DX-View software or across the internet on any Tablet or remote PC with the DX-Dashboard software. All communication is protected through 128-bit encryption. All devices can be monitored in real-time or past event logs can be reviewed. Monitor Rad-DXs on a floor plan or map displays providing an intuitive understanding of the location of a radioactive source. Dose rates can be viewed in multiple graph formats.
Several supporting products help make the Rad-DX a robust radiation detection solution. For more information about these accessories, see our DX products page.

The Rad-DX was listed in a Wired online publication as one of the first commercial products to use the Contiki Operating System/Mesh Network.
