Expansion Markets for The Optoelectronic Nose

Colorimetric sensor arrays are a powerful method to identify and classify odors, complex chemical mixtures, and toxic gases. Excitingly, expansion into diverse unrelated future markets is readily achievable: the sensor array and the analyzer are independent of the specific market. Only a different library of patterns is needed to use the optoelectronic nose for food and beverage quality control, personal care/odor detection, home environmental protection, or even artwork conservation by museum pollution monitoring – all demonstrated in peer-reviewed scientific publications from our CEO’s research labs. We can watch body or mouth odor grow in real time. We can tell one coffee brand from another, or even one single-malt scotch from another and whether your whisky has been watered by as little as 1%. The nose may know, but the eye sees.
