Microcloud chamber

Cloud chambers are devices capable of showing the movement of radioactive particles otherwise invisible to the naked eye.

My work aimed to revitalize this century-old device and give it a newfound purpose and accessibility in the modern age.

The microCloud chamber is a contained, handheld unit with a tele-microscopic platform to broadcast qualitative and quantitative video data regarding radiation concentrations and specifications.
