Sira's New Radiation-tolerant Aps Camera

SIRA'S NEW RADIATION-TOLERANT APS CAMERA SURVIVES BATTERING BY HIGH-ENERGY PARTICLES (Chislehurst, Kent - 18 July 2005) Two tests by independent organisations have recently confirmed the extremely high radiation tolerance of Sira's APS250 video camera. The camera had previously been successfully tested with a 5 Mrad dose of Gamma rays, but has now survived high radiation doses exceeding 6 Mrad from beams of high energy particles with similar performance.
