The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $749,468 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract to Mesa Photonics LLC, a small business based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The contract is for the design and development of a flight-ready prototype of Mesa Photonics' Airborne Multi-Gas Sensor (AMUGS) technology, which uses two-tone frequency-modulated spectroscopy to detect carbon dioxide and methane with high sensitivity. The AMUGS prototype will be designed to meet size and power requirements for deployment on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and will undergo testing on an electric model aircraft at the University of Texas at Dallas. This contract builds on the successful results from the Phase I SBIR project, which demonstrated the AMUGS technology's capabilities in a benchtop configuration.
