Abstract: An example imaging device for generating an image is disclosed. The device may include an imaging detector array configured to collect charges during a radiation exposure at the imaging detector array. The device may include a signal generator coupled with the imaging detector array. The signal generator may be configured to generate a detection signal based on the charges collected by the imaging detector array. The device may include an accelerometer configured to generate an acceleration signal indicative of external forces applied to the imaging device. The device may further include a signal processor coupled with the signal generator and the accelerometer. In response to a determination that the acceleration signal is below a predetermined disturbance threshold and the detection signal exceeds a predetermined threshold, the signal processor may be configured to generate the image based on the detection signal.
