Overview
Flyscan Systems develops a proprietary remote sensing and visual inspection detection platform to make energy corridors and other long linear critical infrastructure safer. Led by CEO Eric Bergeron, the company focuses on helping energy companies and operators protect assets, the public and the environment while delivering a positive financial return. Flyscan has entered commercial agreements with multiple energy companies in North America. The company plans to use new funding to support commercialization and scale up its operations. Its core product targets detection and inspection needs across long linear infrastructure networks. The company is based in Quebec City, Canada. Flyscan Systems develops a platform that automates early detection of small hydrocarbon leaks for oil and gas pipeline operators using a patented ultraviolet laser and provides geo-referenced information on potential threats and anomalies. The system can flag hazards such as vehicles or infrastructure warnings, landslide risks, soil movement from erosion, and changes in vegetation. The company plans to use the new funding to commercialize its platform and advance deployments with pipeline operators. Flyscan was founded in 2015 as a spin-off from the National Optics Institute and is based in Québec City. Prior to this round the company received support from Sustainable Development Technology Canada, Investissement Québec, and the City of Québec. Founder and CEO Eric Bergeron previously led Optosecurity, which raised $38 million in equity financing and was acquired by a division of Toyota Industries.
