Professor Mayeen Featured in 'Business Today' for the Write-Up: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, a Viable Solution for Mapping Radiation Anomalies
Professor Mayeen Uddin Khandaker, Research Centre for Applied Physics and Radiation Technologies, suggests that unmanned aerial systems are advocated as a valuable solution for assessing radiation anomalies in harsh environments created by nuclear incidents. They can conduct real-time aerial surveys without risking human operators' exposure to radiation. The aerial vehicles offer flexibility in size, control, and can be equipped with specialized equipment for efficient data collection, making them ideal for mapping large hazardous areas, including those with extreme radiation or in difficult situations like ruins or fires. This technology is cost-effective and minimizes risks, providing an effective tool for crisis management in the event of nuclear incidents or relevant natural disasters.
