SBRI Challenge - Non Destructive Evaluation (NDE)

Develop a highly sensitive vapour detector based on an already existing technology, that can be used to assess the state of hydraulic seals and to detect fuel and hydraulic fluid leaks. The device will be able to detect trace levels of vapours (part per billion) and offer a more precise and accurate way of detecting fuel and hydraulic fluid leaks. It would also help to locate a damaged seal that is about to cause a leak. The device will provide instantaneous reading of the detected level of the targeted vapour and will be portable and easily deployable. It will operate on a 'switch on and det…
