Periodic Reporting for period 1 - GaSeS (First low cost handheld infrared camera for fugitive emissions, early detection and location, increasing energy efficiency in industrial plants, infrastructures and utilities)
Berichtszeitraum: 2015-06-01 bis 2015-10-31
Especially interesting is the sulfur dioxide (SO2) related industry where huge technological gaps exist for leaks detection and control. Currently, there is not commercially available technological solution or device to image leaks of SO2, even in the US. There is a big potential market around detection of fugitive emissions of SO2. The instrument proposed by SENSIA will be the first device able to detect SO2.
- Handheld/portable equipment for punctual inspections.
- Fixed closed circuit cameras system for large infrastructures surveillance and monitoring.
- On board (drones/helicopter/land vehicles) equipment for inspections of large infrastructures, support to emergencies/crisis resolution.
This solution is based on a novel high spectral sensitivity infrared imager will imply a true disruptive breakthrough in this market and sector thanks to its cost reduction (70-80%) and flexibility/adaptability to different applications.
From an economic point of view SENSIA expects to reach 50M€ turnover, generating over 150 direct jobs.
