Choose a compatible detector and start measuring cosmic radiation on board commercial flights

The current sensors supported for the Cosmic On Air project are:

• Safecast bGeigieNano and bGeigieZen

  • Purchase here: https://bgeigiezen.safecast.jp/

  • Data are recorded locally on a removable microSD card or transmitted in real time via Wi-Fi. Direct uploads from the microSD card to the Safecast API is available without the need to remove the microSD card. Note: the bGeigieNano needs a GPS signal to begin logging.

• Radiacode 102, 103 and 103G

  • Purchase here: https://www.radiacode.com/ (also available on Amazon).

  • Data are logged directly onto the device and can be extracted via the Radiacode app (Android only for now), or via USB connection to a Windows PC.

• GQ electronics GMC-300, GMC-320, GMC-500, GMC-500+, GMC-800 and GMC-SE‍ ‍

  • Purchase here: https://www.gqelectronicsllc.com/ (also available on Amazon).

  • Data are logged directly onto the device and can be downloaded to a Windows PC using the GQ Geiger Counter Data Viewer available here. Note: first install the USB Driver.

• Rium GM (no longer available to purchase)

  • Data can be acquired using either the RiumApp or Open Radiation app (iOS/Android) for Bluetooth enabled detectors.

• MaxIQ sensor kit (coming soon)

If you have any other radiation sensors and would like to contribute to the Cosmic On Air project, or have questions about any of the supported detector systems, please get in touch at cosmiconair@gmail.com.
