SmartNanotubes Technologies

German deeptech start-up SmartNanotubes Technologies presents its multi-channel gas detection platform. 

With their innovation, the scientists want to make digital noses suitable for the mass market. In several years of research, the founding team around Viktor Bezugly developed the "Smell iX16", a smell detector chip based on nanotechnology. Compared to conventional gas sensors, this chip is much more sensitive, smaller and more energy efficient. In addition, Smell iX16 is significantly cheaper and can be produced in larger quantities.

The chip will be used in the 64-channel sensor module Smell Board iX16x4 which can be integrated into IoT systems and smart home devices. Possible areas of applications are leakage detection, fire prevention, indoor air quality monitoring and smart healthcare.
