Popis:	A method is shown to estimate the position of a radioactive source by fusing the data from a sodium iodide detector and a gyroscope while panning the detector. Based on simple geometry considerations, the search motion of a detector is modelled as angular panning. Correlation of both sensor streams is shown as a predictor for the direction of the incoming radiation. The method also allows for a rough distance classification, where a distant source or a homogenous radiation field can be distinguished from a single source near to the detector.
