How it works

Inspired by human olfaction.

OSMI leverages electronic nose technology to capture the collective response of complex gas mixtures. Unlike conventional analytical techniques focused on chemical speciation, the platform generates multidimensional odour fingerprints that describe the mixture as a whole. Advanced AI models interpret these fingerprints to enable continuous monitoring.

The process

From odour fingerprints to actionable intelligence.

1

Sense

Capture complex odour and gas signatures

Dedicated sampling systems, flow control and intelligent electronics continuously monitor the chemical environment, generating stable and repeatable multidimensional fingerprints.

OutputOdour and gas fingerprint
2

Interpret

Convert fingerprints into meaningful information

Artificial intelligence models recognise patterns, compensate for interferences and maintain performance over time, transforming raw sensor data into reliable indicators.

OutputClassification, concentration and trend data
3

Understand

Reveal what is happening

The platform translates complex chemical signatures into insights about operating conditions, emission status, process evolution, product quality, faults and anomalies.

OutputOperational intelligence
4

Act

Enable timely decisions

Insights are delivered through cloud-based dashboards, reports and automated alerts, supporting effective monitoring, control and management actions.
