iMetry - Geiger Counter/Spectrometry
Overview
iMetry system is, low cost, but extreme sensitive pocketsized Photon Counter(MPPC) based moblie gamma ray spectrometry, and hyper sensitive scintillation geiger counter radiation detection system specialized for I131/Cs134/Cs137 survey, using all generations of iPads. Its extra ordinal sensitivity, powered by Photon Counter, ease of use, will fully satisfy all needs of instant radiation measurement, and is must have item to survive this age. The most important thing is, iMetry is affordable and portable and ease of use. You can have in your bag, or you can have your own in your bookshelf, and you can prepare. At the the moment needed, you can check spectrum instantly by your self, to decide yourself whether if you need action or not. So, at the moment, the only item that you can rely on would be iMetry. More important thing is, iMetry will also helps you to decide when you can be back. Let's prepare for the future now. To make it work together, iMetry system requires iMetry: the detector module, iPad, its special dedicated application: iMetry, and external micro-B USB power supply.

iMetry spectrometry/Geiger counter main unit
- Refer to official page for details.
- When used in combination with an iPad application, iMetry can take radiation dose measurement and basic radiation spectrometry.
- iMetry is powered through USB.(USB power supply must be prepared separately)
- When iMetry detects radiation, red LED blinks at according brightness. If you get used to iMetry, you may be able to guess nuclear species with the way of LED blinking, aside from practicality ;-)
- While usual radiation meters may show unstable values, iMetry, being 10~100 times more sensitive than radiation meters of the same class, and with much longer moving average window (MAX 1 hour), easily converge to stable value by measurement time.
iMetry App
- Official iPad Apps
- iMetry Lite(FREE)and iMetry(¥850) are available.
- FREE version has measurement time limitation(15 minutes)
- Paid version has spectrum data saving and CSV data export features.
- iMetry App is not necessarily iMetry main unit exclusive, but officially supports RadAngel, may (with luck) work with other radiation meters or spectrometers with audio output.
Spectrometry application unofficial compatibility reports
- iMetry application works (with luck) with other radiation meters or spectrometers with audio output. There are unconfirmed reports of a hand-made detector, Chappy detector, and GS-1100 working with iMetry App. Special cable is required for Chappy detector. There is also a report claims that one can upload data from iMetry App to SPviewer without PC DATA UPLOAD. In cases, as iMetry does not provide header files or alike, one must manually edit files.
- iMetry(App) with A2700:
- Mr. Namururu: Make iMetry work with a hand-made cable, and its wiring
- A case with iRig
- iMetry(App) with PA1000:(Not recommended, as an expensive radiation meter needs to be disassembled)
- @tyoshizawa :Disassembled PA1000 to work with iMetry App
- BecquerelMonitor2011 with iMetry(hardware):
- BecquerelMonitor must be configured individually, but iMetry works without pain. See iMetryとベクモニでスペクトロメトリーする for details.
- iMetry unit and MIC input of a PC have to be connected with a market available monaural cable.
- Better to use external USB audio device for noise suppression. iMetry should not be powered from PC, as GND may compose potential loop.
- Tested USB audio device(Arvel HAMU02BK)
- @rikka_so_cuteさん:Measured YASASHIO, potassium chloride added salt, with iMetry and BecquerelMonitor for 10 hours.
