How Signals Look (with source) Background Radioactive source Signals not strong enough to pick up
What I Still Have To Do • Figure out why device causes software to spew hex info into GUI edit boxes • Then redirect hex info into dec info into a file • With new file, create graphical output (like previous graph) • Then possibly: Test lots of different sources
How This Matters • Helps create faster X-ray imaging
