Abstract: A probe is configured for introduction into a vicinity of a hazard. The probe comprises multiple sensors, communications circuitry, processor circuitry, and a casing. The multiple sensors include at least: a sensor configured to acquire disposition information of the probe; and a sensor configured to acquire environmental information in a vicinity of the probe. The communications circuitry is configured to transmit the disposition information and the environmental information externally to the probe. The processor circuitry is configured to coordinate operation of the multiple sensors and the communications circuitry. The casing is configured to internally house the multiple sensors, the transmitter, and the processor circuitry. The casing comprises an essentially cylindrical bullet shape, and wherein along a major cylindrical axis a first end of the casing comprises a flat butt surface and a second end of the casing comprises a rounded nose surface.
