MONA-DRONE

Mobile Spectroscopic Detection Systems

Solution for airborne mapping

MONA-DRONE is the solution for short-range airborne radiation detection with unmanned aerial systems (UAS). MONA-DRONE is based on the well-established SARA-platform for environmental monitoring and can detect even minor changes of the composition of the nuclear spectra. The two scintillation detector options use state-of-the-art rugged SiPM technology: NaI(Tl) for a larger dynamic dose rate range, and CsI for higher sensitivity and additional stress resistance. For both, the spectroscopic range can be extended to 100 mSv/h using an optional CeBr3 high dose rate scintillator, or to 1 Sv/h using an additional Geiger-Müller-Tube.

MONA-DRONE perfectly integrates with the MONA-Family and the whole Scienta Envinet product spectrum. Therefore, MONA-DRONE can optionally transmit the measured data automatically to the monitoring center in real time via LTE, such that all data is available in one place for coordinators.

Applications:
  • Survey and detection of gamma contamination in the environment for smaller areas (up to a few kilometres)
  • Uncovering and localisation of hidden radioactive material
  • Support during nuclear emergencies for civil defense, fire brigades and radiation protection
  • Clearance surveys
Features:
  • Fast detection of very low artificial radiation
  • Online spectrum analysis and isotope identification
  • Communication with local operator through the remote – no additional communication equipment necessary
  • Display of analysis results on the remote
  • Integrated FPV camera in the drone
  • Operation under harsh environmental conditions
  • Easy and quick set up
  • Integrated GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo)
  • LIDAR-based height measurement
  • Optional integrated LTE communication for direct data transmission to the monitoring center
MONA-DRONE as Backpack

For missions in crowded environments or terrain that is only accessible on foot, the detector unit of MONA-DRONE can easily be placed in a backpack and becomes MONA-BRD, while retaining the same detector characteristics as the MONA-DRONE. It is ideally suited for homeland security, detection of illicit activities, area surveys, public event monitoring, and emergency preparedness and response. Like all members of the MONA family, MONA-BRD is based on the well-established Scienta Envinet Spectroscopy Platform (SESP), enabling the detection of even minor changes in the composition of nuclear spectra. The comfortable backpack for extended missions is available with a tablet holder and an optional solar charger.
