Description

The proposed technology consists of a portable device for monitoring the freshness of fish, based on its smell. The device is based on a gas sensor and pattern recognition software to correlate the sensor signal to the freshness of the food. The technology is designed for its integration into domestic or industrial refrigerators.

Description

This invention comprises an interrogation and readout differential method for chemical sensors based on Surface Plasmon Resonances (SPR). The integration of the SPR sensing unit (chip or other), as intermediate reflecting element of a Fabry-Perot (FP) optical resonator, is the starting point for the application of this method.

Description

The software is based on mathematical models able of simulating the time evolution of the different stages of a pest population starting from environmental data collected from weather stations located in an area of interest and information regarding the development stage of the host plant. The models are of two types: phenological, which provides information on the stages population as a function of time and demographic which also allows to know the abundance of each population stage.
