Search the Adom Wiki for the molecule "GeigerMolecule" (slug: geigermolecule-774000) at https://wiki-ufypy5dpx93o.adom.cloud/wiki/molecules/geigermolecule-774000. Download its symbol (.kicad_sym), footprint (.kicad_mod), and 3D model (.glb/.step) assets into my current KiCad project under symbols/, footprints/, and 3dmodels/ directories. Register them in the project library tables. Show me the files once installed.

This Geiger counter molecule utilizes a popular off-the-shelf device to equip Adom Factory workcells with the means to perform radiation detection. Specifically, its M4011 Geiger tube only detects ionizing radiation, not electromagnetic radiation. It thus lends itself well to research and teaching applications, but it is not suited for professional safety measurements. A simple 3-pin connection allows a microcontroller to power it and read output data.

NSF Relevance

Geiger counters are useful for measuring radiation that exists in medical, biological, industrial, and defense applications. Abstractions of these situations can be easily implemented into curricula for educational purposes. In the context of a drone, the Geiger counter can be used to detect radiation levels in an area or near an object, without risking exposure to civilian or military personnel.
