Varadis

Varadis is a spin-out company from Tyndall National Institute in Cork, Ireland; a leading European research centre in integrated ICT (Information and Communications Technology) hardware and systems. Varadis is leveraging over 30 years of Tyndall technology development in the radiation monitoring space to bring the Varadis RADFET range to global markets. The Varadis RADFET is a microelectronic chip, specially engineered to be sensitive to high energy (ionising) radiation. The RADFETs are small, robust, require no power to detect radiation, can easily be integrated into electronic systems, and are cost effective. Varadis RADFETS are today circling the world at 17,000 mph in the International Space Station and 220 miles below on Earth (and a further 100 metres underground) at CERN, measuring radiation levels created by particles travelling at 300,000 kilometres per second around the Large Hadron Collider. A truly Universal Company.
