In today’s technology-driven world, we are constantly surrounded by electromagnetic fields (EMFs) generated by various electronic devices and power systems. These invisible forces may influence our environment and well-being, yet they often go unnoticed. This research introduces a user-friendly, portable device designed to detect and spatially visualize Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) EMFs. Utilizing a Raspberry Pi Pico as the core processor, along with a magnetometer and LiDAR sensor, the developed radiation tester not only measures EMF strength but also maps its distribution in space. Although testing was conducted in controlled environments using transformers and toroidal cores rather than real-world power infrastructure, the device effectively identified variations in EMF levels. While not intended for health diagnostics, this tool presents a practical solution for contractors, researchers, and communities seeking to better understand EMF exposure. The project contributes to making invisible environmental factors more tangible, enabling safer, more informed decision-making regarding EMF exposure in everyday settings.
