Development of Cannabinoid sensors

我们渥太华大学的团队开发了一种电子传感器，可以检测和区分蒸气和液体中的不同大麻素。该传感器基于有机薄膜晶体管技术，具有廉价的现场检测和定量的潜力，而不需要训练有素的人员或昂贵的实验室设备。大麻生产者、种植者和经销商对这项技术非常感兴趣。该项目将有助于改善我们的传感器设备信号输出，以及建立按比例缩小的测试设备和用户友好的软件界面。这将使我们能够向投资者展示一个最小的可行产品，为我们的第一个市场应用在便携式传感器的持牌生产商。到项目结束时，我们将为我们的初创公司Ekidna Sensinginc获得额外的私人投资。该系统将安装在产品上，并向获得许可的大麻生产商提供便携式系统，以便将其纳入其流程。

Our Team at the University of Ottawa has developed an electronic sensor that can detect and differentiate different cannabinoids in both vapour and liquid. The sensor is based on organic thin film transistor technology and has the potential for inexpensive on-site detection and quantification without the need for highly trained personnel or expensive laboratory equipment. This technology is of great interest to cannabis producers, growers and distributors. This project will aid in improving our sensor device signal output, as well as build scaled down testing equipment, and a user-friendly software interface. This will enable us to demonstrate to investors a minimum viable product for our first market application in portable sensing for licensed producers. By the end of the project, we will secure additional private investment for our startup company, Ekidna Sensinginc. that will iterate upon the product and deliver a portable system to licensed cannabis producers for integration into their processes.
