System and method for monitoring receipt and estimating flux value, in real time, of incident radiation, using two or more nanostructures and associated terminals to provide closed electrical paths and to measure one or more electrical property change values \u0394EPV, associated with irradiated NSs, during a sequence of irradiation time intervals. The apparatus includes mechanically responsive elements for gripping an interior of a casing joint, and hydraulically responsive elements for gripping an interior of the casing joint responsive to pressure of drilling fluid flowing through the apparatus. The 2D proto-matrix is transformed into a 2D matrix via letting the values smaller than 0 be 0. This driving method of this crystal display provides a sharp display quality when displaying darker image, and further reduces power consumption, particularly when displaying low brightness images.
