Some Vintage Photos, Part 2/2

West German scientists have produced this simple optical instrument for measuring radio activity. Named the “atom eye”, it is like one half of a pair of field glasses, held to the eye by a rubber headband. A sensitive colored lens inside reacts to radioactivity, showing the degree an area or object is affected on a scale. The scale also shows how long a person can remain in the area without danger. It was shown for the first time at a news conference in Bonn, November 23, 1954. (Photo by AP Photo)
