3 June 2011iCATSI: a multi-pixel imaging differential standoff chemical detection sensor
iCATSI is a combination of the CATSI instrument, a standoff differential FTIR optimised for the characterisation of
chemicals, and of the MR-i, the hyperspectral imaging spectroradiometer of ABB Bomem based on the proven MR
spectroradiometers.
The instrument is equipped with a dual-input telescope to perform optical background subtraction. The resulting signal is
the differential between the spectral radiance entering each input port. With that method, the signal from the background
is automatically removed from the signal of the object of interest. The instrument is capable of sensing in the VLWIR
(cut-off near 14 μm) to support research related to standoff chemical detection.
