Technology

The SeekIR® sensor suite

Methane and carbon dioxide measurement with industry-leading TDLAS technology and 3D temperature profiling — descended from the spectrometer NASA JPL built for the Curiosity rover.

TDLAS

Tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy

SeekIR® measures gas concentration by laser absorption along the flight path, at parts-per-billion sensitivity for methane and carbon dioxide. The laser locks to a single methane absorption line, so other hydrocarbons on site do not register as methane. Detection performance was measured in single-blind controlled release trials at METEC, Colorado State University, with results published in Elementa.

SeekIR sensor suite
3D temperature profiling

Full site characterization, not just concentration

Vertical and horizontal temperature profiles captured in flight feed plume models and flux planes — turning raw readings into defensible emission rates with dynamic uncertainty bounds.

Drone with SeekIR
The stack

Hardware, real-time software, analytics

SeekIR® sensor suite

Lightweight, ruggedized, and drone-agnostic. Measures methane, carbon dioxide, and 3D temperature profiles. Field-proven from the North Sea to the Permian Basin.

FASTR

Real-time gas concentration and telemetry streamed from sky to screen, so crews confirm findings before the drone lands.

Celsius reporting software

Reconciliation analytics comparing measured vs. inventoried emissions, packaged into framework-ready submissions.
