This presentation will discuss the development and production of the GScan detector systems, as well as its performance in tomographic measurements. We will highlight the system’s spatial resolution, material classification capabilities, and its potential to revolutionize various industries.

GScan’s technology can detect objects and chemical changes up to 10 meters deep in critical infrastructure with millimetre accuracy. This is achieved by combining muon tomography and AI/ML. Muon tomography utilises harmless, highly penetrative cosmic ray origin muons to create 3D images of large objects, such as historical pyramids, modern bridges, tunnels, mining sites, industrial systems, and nuclear reactors.

GScan’s muonFLUX detector system, developed in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, UCLouvain, Imperial College London, DLR and DESY in Germany, and CERN , is designed for scalable production and diverse applications. Despite its compact, solid, and lightweight design, the system achieves 120 μm spatial and 1 mrad angular resolution in track reconstruction, allowing for the differentiation of objects composed of low-Z materials. Its compact, lightweight, robust and transportable nature makes it suitable for commercial use, especially outdoor and mobile applications.

This presentation will discuss the development, production, and performance of the GScan detector in tomographic measurements, highlighting its spatial resolution, material classification capabilities, and potential to revolutionize various industries.
