We present the development of a system for the detection and energy spectrometry of alpha particle radiation based on
the Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) CMOS image sensor. The data is read, processed and displayed in real-time using
a single-board-computer (SBC). We show that by using image processing techniques, a slightly modified webcam can be
used to measure α radiation. In contrast to dedicated measurement devices such as Geiger counters, our framework can
classify the type of radiation and can differentiate between various kinds of ionizing radiation. The system was tested
with standard 226Ra and 241Am alpha sources.
