AMUSENS, a new era for gas sensors.
Current gas detection systems often struggle with precision and portability. AMUSENS presents a revolutionary solution by employing metal oxide (MO) sensors and enhancing data analysis through artificial intelligence (AI). A key challenge the project addresses is improving sensor selectivity, which is essential in modern industry, where sensors frequently respond to multiple gases indiscriminately.
The potential applications for this innovative technology are extensive, ranging from individual air quality monitoring to quality assurance in the food industry and healthcare. With their low cost and minimal energy consumption, these sensors can be seamlessly integrated into portable devices such as badges or smartwatches, making environmental monitoring more accessible and user-friendly.
