A detection system includes a photodetector, a spatial light modulator (SLM) device optically coupled to the photodetector, and a controller. The controller is operatively connected to the SLM device and is disposed in communication with the photodetector and a memory. The memory has instructions recorded on the memory that cause the controller to communicate a SLM pattern sequence to the SLM device, modulate illumination incident on the SLM device according to the SLM pattern sequence to generate an illumination pulse sequence, and receive an intensity-time profile from the photodetector corresponding to the SLM pattern sequence. The instructions also cause the controller to signal, with spatial specificity, presence of flame or gas when the intensity-time profile indicates that flame or gas is present within a field of view of the detection system. Detection methods and computer program products are also described.
