Aside from the film grain, I’m pretty impressed that the camera seemed to survive that and that the footage from it could be extracted like nothing of this nature had ever happened to the device.
because only product being irradiated goes there. no human should be in that area. plus with the lights off you see the ionized air. that would probably be washed out with another light source.
Bonus: the photo was taken with a film camera and the graininess is from all the radiation.
Digital camera also get funky with radiation: GoPro Ride Through an Electron Beam Irradiator at Full Beam Power / @andrewseltzman9280/ youtube.com
Does non beta-radiation have the same effect? (Especially gamma rays which don’t even have an electric charge)
I don’t know. If the gamma rays are absorbed and converted to electrons in the photo-sensor, it could also cause noise I suppose ?

Well, it WAS impressively shielded as well.
It’s kind of crazy how the electron beam looks like a special effect from a 1980’s sci-fi movie.
Very cool. Feels like it should be a level in Half Life.
Awesome
Super cool. Working on some ebeam sterilization stuff through contractors. Cool to see the nuts and bolts.
why the dogfuck did they not illuminate the hallway the camera goes through

Why would they? Humans aren’t supposed to be there
for the same reason they sent a camera into it… to assist with visualization 🤨
Noise: digital
Grain: film
