RadioactivityCounter This application is a real working radioactivity counter without any extra hardware needed ! It will turn your phone into a Geiger Müller Counter to measure radioactivity after proper calibration. ** Attention after upgrading iOS to a higher iOS do the calibrate again, as camera data properties might have changed ** Disclaimer: The type of radiation picked up by the camera can be dangerous/detrimental to the user's health as well as cause damage to the device. Important note: The camera sensor can measure gamma radiation (CS137 for example) and some beta radiation (depends on the energy if the beta rays can pass through the plastic parts - for example H3 or K14 are weak sources). It cannot measure alpha rays (PO210) For AM241 though its primary a Alpha source also some gamma radiation is emitted and might be detectable for a longer measurement. Please check our homepages for examples and hints on how to measure. We did calibrations with several iPod2*, IPhone 3GS*, iPhone 4*, iPhone 4S, iPhone5, iPhone 5S iPhone 6, 6s and iPad 2, iPad 3* devices at the Helmholtz Research Centre, Munich. we used a CS137 test source from 10 µGy/h till 1 Sv/h for each of the phones we had. The values are stored for a rough start on the application (all devices differ a little bit). For precise professional measurement the devices must be adjusted to the sensor which is possible with the expert setup. For personal use the defaults should be sufficient (please give us feedback). * = Attention some phone might not be compatible due the new version of iOS or missing features (gps precision using sim cards)- please try to use an older rev of the App which should be available according to my settings (1.3).

This app is build to Generate Flat Pattern Layout Marking of Miter Bend, Segment Bend, Cut Bend Fabricated Bend used in fabrication, Piping, Ducting and Insulation Field. This app is very useful for all working professionals in the Field of Fabrication of Piping, Ducting and Aluminium Insulation. In this app all Dimensions are used in MM to Calculate Marking so please enter your Input Dimensions in MM to get correct solution or correct layout of Miter Bend. This app is designed in three options for 12 Nos, 24 Nos and 36 Nos, 48 Nos, 72 Nos and 96 Nos of equal Divisions of Plate or Pipe. In this App Miter Angle is Calculated and also Displayed on Result Screen. Required Cutting Plate Size is also calculated in this app so that you can plan for raw materials accordingly. We had Make arrangement for Displaying Layout of Both End parts that is First and Last Part and Middle Part is shown for Better Under Standing and better marking. This app is very useful for those who are working in fabrication of Pipelines, HVAC Ducting and Aluminium Insulation Industry. In this App you can generate layout as per your requirement by giving input as Diameter, Bend Radius, Bend Parts, and Angle of Turn. if you want layout marking on Flat Plat then put Input diameter as mean diameter or if you want to layout marking directly Pipe then put input Diameter as Outer Diameter for more Accuracy. You Can Select Lay-outing Options of 12 Lines, 24 Lines, 36 Lines, 48 Nos, 72 Nos and 96 Nos as per your Required Accuracy. please note that Cutting allowance are not included in this app so please add your cutting allowance as per your Requirement. it is best Suitable for Cut Bends, Segment Bends, fabricated Bend, Miter Bend, layout marking, layout Development, raw plate Size for miter bend, fabrication , process equipment etc.
