UAV & Handheld Cameras

At present, the quantum gas camera operates from a fixed emplacement (a pole, mast or tripod), on top of a pan-tilt mechanism that allows it to scan over a wide area on a continuous basis.  This method is ideally suited to wide-area monitoring.  However, QLM does not plan to only provide a single deployment solution.

In the longer-term, QLM plans to develop handheld and UAV-mounted versions of the camera for maximum versatility, able to visualise and quantify leak rates of a target gas in real time and supplement continuous monitoring by enabling remote survey such as emissions monitoring of tall infrastructure.
