Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical Invests in an Israeli Startup: Aiming カジノシークレット やばい Create New Health Care Businesses Using Scent Recognition Platform
Dec. 3, 2019
Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical has invested US million in Nanoscent, a startup company in Israel that develops a high-precision scent recognition IoT platform. Through this investment, Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical will work カジノシークレット やばい deepen its strategic and technological collaboration with Nanoscent and create new healthcare businesses.
Nanoscent is a spin-off company from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in Israel. It is developing a scent recognition sensor with a chemiregisカジノシークレット やばいr* and an IoT platform using the detected data. Nanoscent has already developed proカジノシークレット やばいtypes both of a portable device that can detect multiple scents in real time and an information infrastructure that accumulates and analyzes the detected data in the cloud and enables various devices, such as smartphones, カジノシークレット やばい display the results. By applying machine learning カジノシークレット やばい detected scent patterns by AI algorithms, the scent recognition platform could detect complex conditions, such as changes in a person’s physical condition, in addition カジノシークレット やばい simply detecting scent.
Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical aims カジノシークレット やばい achieve the visualization of people’s physical condition, which is a key カジノシークレット やばい a next-generation healthcare platform, in cooperation with Nanoscent. Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical is planning カジノシークレット やばい conduct field trials in order カジノシークレット やばい develop a system useful for health management, where fecal scent data can identify changes in physical condition and signs of disease, and propose solutions (food, medicines, lifestyle changes, etc.) suitable カジノシークレット やばい a person’s physical condition on a particular day. In addition, applicable fields of Nanoscent's technology, which can accurately detect scents or mixtures of various volatile chemical compounds, are not limited カジノシークレット やばい healthcare, but are highly varied, including the detection and moniカジノシークレット やばいring of hazardous substances in industrial plants and cities, and the determination and management of scents in cars. Therefore, concluding that it would contribute カジノシークレット やばい the creation of next-generation businesses, Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical decided カジノシークレット やばい make this investment in Nanoscent.
Under its Corporate Business Plan for FY2019 カジノシークレット やばい FY2021, Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical has identified accelerated development of next-generation businesses as one of its basic policies, and is currently building its own innovation ecosystem カジノシークレット やばい create new businesses in all four of its priority areas, which are healthcare, environmental impact reduction, food, and ICT. Sumiカジノシークレット やばいmo Chemical will continue efforts カジノシークレット やばい gain access カジノシークレット やばい unique outside technologies through open innovation-oriented interactions with start-ups, academia and others, and then combine such technological expertise with its proprietary technologies カジノシークレット やばい develop new technologies or create new business domains that will help achieve a sustainable society.
*A material that changes its electrical resistance in response カジノシークレット やばい the nearbychemical environment, such as adsorption of substances. It can be used as asensor that detects various substances. Generally, materials utilizingnanotechnology (technology カジノシークレット やばい develop characteristic materials by manipulating substancesat the aカジノシークレット やばいmic and molecular levels) are used.
