Radar technology is being tested to detect mold behind gypsum wallboard by scientists from Georgia Tech Research Institute, Atlanta. "Mold is a common problem, especially in humid, southern climates, but people are often not aware of it because it's occurring behind a painted or wallpapered wall," explains researcher Victor De Jesus.
In addition to degrading structures, it can emit smelly and potentially harmful compounds into the air.
