Pantone 5 107SH – World’s First Smartphone With Built-in Radiation Detector:

          Softbank has entered the smartphone market with the Pantone 5 107SH as its first offering. This smartphone boasts of a bult-in Geiger counter. The radiation detector is user-friendly and can measure radiation levels under 20% accuracy. After the Fukushima disaster, concerns regarding radiation levels have always kept the people of Japan worried, and to assure them of under-control radiation levels, the Japanese company Softbank has conceived this smartphone. The features include an Android 4.0 OS, 3.7″ LCD screen, and a 4 megapixel camera.

         Though the Pantone 5 is the first phone with a built-in radiation detector, it’s not the first to come up with a mobile Geiger counter, as several enterprises released mobile radiation detectors soon after the Fukushima incident. But this phone’s radiation detector is quite easy to use. Just by pressing a button below the screen, the user may get the radiation sensor on, which records the surroundings and gives the respective details. The phone is expected to release sometime around the end of July.
