LightMachinery Inc.
The great challenge with Brillouin spectroscopy is that the scattered signal from the un-shifted wavelength of the laser can overwhelm the small Brillouin shifted return signal. LightMachinery has combined its leading-edge HyperFine spectrometer with a very narrow band tunable filter to suppress the bright un-shifted laser frequency.

Airborne Remote Methane Quantification Using Thermal Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging Airborne Remote Methane Quantification Using Thermal Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging
Thu, Sep 15, 2022 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas. Many regulatory bodies around the world are taking significant steps toward sharply reducing emissions from the oil and gas sector. Airborne infrared hyperspectral imaging can visualize and quantify these emissions and gas leaks under various environmental conditions and industrial contexts. Benjamin Saute of Telops, shares on the capabilities of airborne-based methane emission detection systems were recently demonstrated in a measurement campaign composed of multiple controlled releases with methane flow rates. This test showed that infrared hyperspectral imaging is a highly efficient and sensitive tool for the detection and quantification of methane leaks.
