optical gas imaging

Optical gas imaging (OGI) is a technology that uses special cameras to detect and visualize gases emitted from objects or surfaces. These cameras can see gases that are invisible to the naked eye by capturing infrared light, which they translate into images highlighting gas leaks or emissions. OGI is often used in industries like oil and gas to quickly locate leaks of hazardous or valuable gases, helping with safety, environmental protection, and operational efficiency. It provides a live visual of where gases are escaping, making maintenance and leak detection more effective and immediate.
