About Anomaly Scanner

Anomaly Scanner

A Geiger-style counter whose click rate follows magnetic intensity, built as a late-1990s instrument: segmented displays, analogue meters, rocker switches, a power-on self test and a DOS-style diagnostics terminal. Clicks come from an AudioWorklet using Poisson arrivals with a tube dead time, so the rhythm behaves like a real counter rather than a metronome.

The count responds to your device magnetometer where one exists and to a clearly labelled simulation where it does not. A rising rate means the measured field is changing; it is not a measurement of radiation and not evidence of anything.

How to use Anomaly Scanner

  1. Power the panel on and let the self-test finish. It checks the display segments, meters and click circuit, as a real instrument would.
  2. Turn on the magnetometer probe. On a phone the click rate now follows changes in the magnetic field; on a computer without a sensor the panel runs a labelled simulation.
  3. Adjust Click for the click character, Dead for the counter’s dead time, Sens for sensitivity, Amb for ambient level and Vol for volume.
  4. Optionally enable microphone input, and record the audio of a session.
  5. Open the EEPROM configuration screen and the diagnostics terminal to see what the instrument is doing internally.

Tips

  • Keep the phone still and sweep slowly. Moving it near metal changes the reading more than anything else.
  • Zero it in a quiet spot first, so the count rate reflects change rather than the ambient field.

Questions

Is this a real Geiger counter?

No. A Geiger counter measures ionising radiation with a gas-filled tube. This scanner borrows only the sound and behaviour: random clicks with a dead time, the way a real tube cannot register a second particle for a moment after the first. The rate is driven by your phone’s magnetometer.

Why are the clicks irregular?

They follow a Poisson process, like real radioactive decay counts. Even at a steady rate, the gaps between clicks vary randomly, so the rhythm sounds natural instead of mechanical.

Can it find portals or anomalies?

It responds to changes in the magnetic field near your device — metal, magnets, wiring and appliances. A rising count means the field changed, and the instrument cannot tell you why.

How is it different from the EMF Meter?

They use the same sensor. The EMF Meter shows readings in milligauss or microtesla; the Anomaly Scanner turns them into a count rate you hear, which is easier to follow while you walk around.

This is an instrument and a sound tool, provided for entertainment and experiment. It describes what it measures and does not identify the cause of anything it shows.
