The Electro-Optic Steering Committee (EOSC) was initiated with the 1989 GRI Safety Research Program. The purpose of the committee was to assist the GRI Safety Research Manager in the review and evaluation of research contracts where advanced electro-optic and/or microelectronic concepts were critical to the success of the research. During 1991-92, GRI convened the EOSC several times and focused their attention on the progress of two leak detection projects. One project involved the feasibility of detecting gas leaks from transmission pipelines using an infrared laser remote sensing system that would operate from an aerial platform. Consistent with a pervious review of the project, EOSC continued to question the viability of the concept design. The Committee suggested a format for ground-based simulation experiments that might confirm the performance of the aerial remote sensing concept in a cost-effective manner. Another project involved an improved technique for the detection of gas leaks from a mobile vehicle by means of the infrared absorption of CH4 and C2H6.
