Article Synopsis
- - A new algorithm for mapping and locating radiation sources was developed using non-linear least squares methods, showing successful results in a controlled 3D space with over 80% accuracy across various noise conditions.
- - The algorithm was tested experimentally for radioactive decontamination and locating a lost Wi-Fi router, with the radioactive source being located within 7 cm in 79.3% of cases and the Wi-Fi router within 7 m in 57.9% of tests.
- - This method requires less data than traditional surveys, showing promise for practical applications like drone-assisted source retrieval and mapping of Wi-Fi routers, though further improvements and failure modes are still to be addressed.
