Lots of detection chat in the Detection Zone today…
Today’s highlights:
- We learnt how Samer and Amanda use detectors:
scorpio : what do you do with americium?
samerkilani : we use it to test sensors. Americium emits particles and we are able to see them on our sensors.
mrholden : what type of fire detectors do you work with?
amandalewin : I design fire alarm systems so we use a combination of smoke and heat detectors depending on the situation. Sometimes we also need to be able to detect carbon monoxide.
- And Amanda’s crazy idea:
What’s the craziest idea you’ve ever come up with?
