Summary
Stick&Sense aims at making gas monitoring technology accessible to everyone. In a moment when society is more and more aware about the risks related to airborne pollution, the market is failing at providing a gas monitoring solution suitable for a massive, widespread use. Stick&Sense addresses, all-in-one, the main limitations of existing technologies: it is a disruptive one-stop solution capable of offering low cost, low complexity, high selectivity, good durability and broad detection range. Stick&Sense is a new colorimetric-electronic device consisting of a new low-cost optical reader and a new gas-specific colorimetric sticker designed to change its colour in presence of a target gas, that will operate together just attaching the sticker to the reader. With this genuine concept, Stick&Sense will offer an easy-to-use system for a wide range of gas sensing and monitoring applications, enabling a rapid expansion, not only among the traditional industry users, but also towards new, non-exploited mass consumers applications with millions of potential users. In short, Stick&Sense can revolutionize how people know the risks around them and relate with their environment to improve life-quality, safety and health. In this project, we will design and produce the first minimum viable demonstrator of the technology that will serve us to validate the Stick&Sense effectiveness both at a technical and at a commercial level. The team hosts all the expertise needed to implement this PoC from a technical and from a business points of view and counts with an extensive network of industry contacts to partner with in customer discovery, validation and eventual tech transfer agreements. The key innovations of the Stick&Sense solution have been recently discovered in ERC-funded activities and its technological core (the reader chip) patented; thus, all its innovation potential can be captured if the here-proposed test, validation and knowledge transfer activities are carried out now.
