The nose knows, but with how much precision? Also, sometimes, you're really rather that a machine take a really good whiff.
Using a patented sensor array in tandem with a cloud-enabled AI engine for analytics and reporting, Stratuscent is able to detect, identify and analyze scents in the local environment in real-time, and with great accuracy.
Chemical detection isn’t new, although you would need to install multiple detectors to be able to identify just a handful of airborne chemicals. Stratuscent’s breakthrough technology can identify everyday, complex aromas with a single device.
Smart homes can become even smarter with Stratuscent’s digital chemical sensing technology. Our “digital nose” can smell and identify cooking stages and can also sniff out food spoilage.
Science fiction movies and novels let me imagine this many decades ago. One of my favorites is the sniffer robot from Michael Crichton's 1985 film Runaway, which starred Tom Selleck, Kirstie Alley and Gene Simmons was the inspired choice to play the villain.
