Радиоактивная угроза под контролем: МЧС протестировало дроны с дозиметрами

New technologies will help measure radiation in dangerous areas without risk to rescuers

In the Nizhny Novgorod region, EMERCOM employees conducted exercises using new unmanned aerial systems, the main purpose of which was to practice transmitting information from drones and interacting with EMERCOM aviation during operations, including the dropping of fire extinguishing agents.

A commission from the central apparatus of EMERCOM, scientists from the All-Russian Research Institute for Civil Defense and Emergency Situations, as well as employees of the regional administration observed the development of scenarios.

Special attention was paid to the new payload — a dosimeter that allows remote measurement of radiation levels, which is especially important for surveying hard-to-reach areas and potential hazard zones. The technologies used in these exercises have proven their value in simulating man-made disasters, where the speed and safety of rescue operations are a priority.
