About

Source: noze.ca

Noze develops a silicon aroma chip, the SiAC64, described by FABrIC as using vertical interconnects to integrate 64 unique, chemically sensitive nano-composite thin films into a single sensor array. The company states that "After more than a decade of R&D, we've successfully engineered it into a sensor chip", paired with AI models that read volatile organic compound signatures in exhaled breath for point-of-care screening. Noze states that its device is under development and has not been approved, cleared or authorized by the US Food and Drug Administration, and is not available for commercial sale.
