Comment on Hiroshima scientists turn any smartphone into a radiation detector
JustinTheGM@ttrpg.network 2 days agoIt’s not an “if” detector, it’s a “how much” detector. It looks like it’s using the LED chamber to light the film in a consistent way, and then the phone camera measures the color change to quantify how much radiation it was exposed to.

Ah. I missed that. Ok, this makes total sense then. But the films activate at high doses anyway; doses you’ll notice. I guess this system will be especially useful if those films ever become more sensitive.
