RADEAGLE
The RADEAGLE is a Handheld radioisotope identification device (RIID). The RADEAGLE combines a large, high sensitivity, NaI(Tl) crystal with an intelligent algorithm, and can simultaneously detect and identify up to four isotopes, typically in under 30 seconds, even in complex shielded or masked scenarios.
