Radiation sensor system

A radiation detector apparatus comprising:

• a photosensor configured to detect radiation, the photosensor having a voltage input;
• a housing supporting the photosensor, the housing further comprising an AC power plug configured to be removably connectable to an AC wall socket;
• and
• a converter configured to apply a voltage to the voltage input of the photosensor when the AC power plug is connected to the AC wall socket.

A method of determining a radiation value comprising:

• receiving a new radiation event data;
• maintaining a record of the new radiation event data among a record of previously received radiation events data;
• calculating a user-configured average value radiation level based on the record of the radiation events data;
• calculating a radiation level on the basis of the record of the received new radiation event data and the record of previously received radiation events data;
• and
• outputting the radiation value and the user-configured average value radiation level.

A radiation detector apparatus comprising:

• a means for detecting a radiation level;
• a means for processing the radiation level, wherein the processing means includes one or more of a Kalman filter and a running average filter;
• and
• a means for wirelessly transmitting the processed radiation level to a network.

A computer readable media including program instructions which when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform the method comprising:

• receiving from a photosensor a signal descriptive of a level of radiation;
• processing the signal to calculate a radiation level, wherein the processing includes one or more of a Kalman filter and a running average filter;
• and
• transmitting the processed radiation level to a network via a wireless interface coupled to the processor.
