Cosmic Rays Detector App

An app that detects cosmic rays using Camera's CMOS sensor

What are Cosmic Rays?

Cosmic rays are energetic, subatomic particles that arrive from outside the Earth's atmosphere.

How does the app detect Cosmic Rays?

When a cosmic ray enters the CMOS sensor, the cosmic ray deposits a charge onto the sensor itself. If the sensor is not exposed to any sources of light, the cosmic ray will leave a track behind in the resulting image.

The app
