VIRTUAL TOUR

EXTERNAL DOSIMETRY LABORATORY

Discover IRSN's external dosimetry laboratories at Le Vésinet as if you were there. Take a behind-the-scenes look at the dosimeter manufacturing and analysis processes, from the receiving room to the shipping area.

HOW TO USE THE VIRTUAL TOUR ?

Learn how to use the animation of the virtual tour of the laboratories to follow the journey of a dosimeter at IRSN, from receipt to shipping, including analysis and assembly !

  • This virtual tour presents two different maps of IRSN Dosimetry's analysis laboratories :

     

    The first shows the laboratories' four areas:

    • In yellow, the Logistics Area : This is where all analyzed dosimeters are received and returned.

    • In red, the RPL Process Zone : Dedicated to the analysis of dosimeters using "Radio Photo Luminescence" technology : Chest, Ambiance and Environment.

    • In light blue, the TLD Process Zone : dedicated to the reading of "Thermo Luminescence Dosimetry" technology : Lens, Ring and Wrist. 

    • In night green, the Neutron Process Zone : Dedicated to the analysis of "Neutron" technology dosimeters : Chest, Ambiance, Environment and Criticity.

    The second map is an illustrated representation of the different areas of the IRSN Dosimetry laboratories.

    You can find a simplified diagram of the installations in each of the four laboratories zones, and it's from this map that you can take your virtual tour.

    1. On the illustrated map, several icons representing blue glasses are positioned at the various steps of a dosimeter's journey through the analysis laboratories.

    2. Clicking on one of them takes you to the first interface, which briefly presents the selected step, with an explanatory paragraph + a preview video.

    3. Clicking again on the "vues 360°" glasses icon takes you to the panoramic view of the selected step. Here, you can freely observe everything around you as if you were physically present in the laboratories.

    4. Simply click on the purple ascending arrow "Up" to leave the panoramic view and return to the previous interface. From here, you can move to the previous/next step using the orange and green lateral arrows, or return to the virtual tour home page using the purple ascending arrow.

    • The "Zoom" buttons :
      The loupe-shaped icons let you zoom in or out. This action can also be done with your mouse wheel.

    • The movement arrows :
      Arrow-shaped icons help you adapt your point of view within the animation. This action can also be performed using the arrow keys on your keyboard.

    • The "Virtual Reality" mode :
      The mask icon lets you select the virtual reality device of your choice to begin your virtual tour.

    • The volume control :
      The loudspeaker-shaped icon lets you activate or disable the sounds of the virtual tour.

    • The automatic tour and autorotation :
      The first icon with a reading arrow enables you to launch the "automatic tour". This takes you successively through the various stages of a dosimeter's journey in an autonomous way.
      The second icon with a reading arrow lets you start the "Autorotation" from the viewpoint you are currently at.

    • Hide command controls :
      Finally, the screen icon lets you show or hide the controls previously presented.
