Rebellion Photonics has developed the Gas Cloud Imaging (GCI) camera, a hyperspectral imaging camera that
monitors, quantifies, and displays gas leaks in real-time as far as 2 miles away. For confined areas and small sites,
Rebellion Photonics provides the miniGCI camera that can detect leaks as far away as 100 m. The camera uses infrared
absorption spectroscopy and can determine what gases are present by analyzing absorption signatures. The GCI
camera operates in the long-wave spectral regions, which allows it to differentiate and quantify gases present. The
company has also developed Spectra Mission Control, a video-based control center for Rebellion’s products, and Rebel
Cloud for on-the-go control through mobile devices.
Rebellion Photonics uses algorithms built in house to detect and quantify gas and liquid leaks in real-time. Alert levels
are programmed directly into the system allowing for a fully automated process. Alarm options are available for gas
detection, liquid leak detection, intrusion detection and security, fire detection, tank level monitoring, flare monitoring,
and maintenance triage. The leak detection system can detect all hydrocarbons in the 10 ppm to 500 ppm range and is
compatible with all major DCS and alarm systems. The self-calibrating hardware is typically 100 times more accurate at
detecting leaks than traditional hardware and can estimate the total volume of gas emitted within 10% accuracy.
Operators can set thresholds for these alarms depending on the application and gases present. The technology allows
operators to identify and prioritize leaks, reducing time spent on investigating false alarms created by steam or heat.
