The GSN 2015 Digital Yearbook

as a standalone device and connected wirelessly to a
Rapiscan oversight system for remote data collection
and display. Using the MP100 is as easy as slipping
the backpack on and walking around. Weighing just
18 pounds, the MP100 is lightweight and easy to use.
Additionally, the onboard battery enables 16 hours of
continuous operation in a wide range of environments.
The Rapiscan RadviewerTM Android app displays the
operator’s current position and direction toward the
radiation source. The design of the MP100’s radiation
detectors provides increased directional sensitivity of
the radiation detection. A radiation alarm is signaled audibly
via a headphone jack on the backpack or visually
via RadviewerTM. In this way, the MP100 enables users
to effectively detect and locate radioactive threats. The
MP100 is manufactured by Rapiscan’s Radiation Detection
Products division, which has supplied thousands of
radiation monitors that are deployed at border crossings,
seaports, airports and facilities around the world.
The MP100 uses Rapiscan’s proven radiation detection
technology adapted for a backpack deployment. The
radiation detection performance meets the requirements
of ANSI N42.53. The MP100 offers customers
efficient, easy to use and reliable man-portable radiation
detection with high performance at an affordable cost of
acquisition and operation.
