#2Very interesting technology. Look forward to more details.
Hopefully this will be packaged in a portable tool, with different spectroscopy ranges.
Then could be used for testing samples of food, soil, water, particles etc for a selection of toxic compounds, pesticides for examples, food groups for amounts of ingredients or impurities. And on.
I didn't find a link for more info; costs, unit options, etc.

#3Is this an opportunity for Apple (or similar) buy this technology/company and apply it to their phones? Could this be a leap in bio-tracking for individuals/athletes?

If it's general enough and durable enough (like not having to replace a chip / filter every time it's used), I don't think it's hyperbole to think of the possible applications more broadly.
Would be a step toward the ol' Star-Trek tricorder. They say it can detect various organic molecules. I wonder if it has potential for non-invasive blood testing, e.g. blood glucose. If it is general purpose, could it indicate other potential health conditions? More broadly could you scan your drink at the bar for illicit substances? Would it detect noxious gasses in your vicinity?
Definitely feels like a decent step in that direction.

#5We'll see a lot more advances in non-invasive diagnostic measuring the next few years into products. Just now, as a consumer, i try a 24/7 blood pressure bracelet (https://aktiia.com/uk/) which works remarkably well. Diamontech and others work on qcd-laser-based glucose-monitoring, etc.

#6Hone Lab is a handheld spectroscopy device designed for on farm that apparently has some limited production availability. They have been out testing and building their datasets.

#7I am building products using infrared/red/green etc for identity and the normal health indicators like BP, pulse and SP0.
Using machine learning on the data makes it really interesting.

#8This is massive.
I can't imagine how often we guess at what's going on today, where knowing for real will result in better outcomes.
As an amateur wine maker, this would be magic, it's very difficult to measure alcohol concentration, ratios of acids etc.

How does the Aktiia thing actually works?

What does qcd mean here? It’s not quantum chromodynamics for sure and for quantum dots there is a c too many.
