Data Storage & Cloud Features
Cloud-Based Storage: All test data (raw signals, results, timestamps) is automatically sent to the cloud after each run.
Access & Reports: Users can view/download reports via the cloud platform, including:
Sample name, date/time, operator.
Raw signal graphs and analyzed results (e.g., caffeine concentration in mg/g).
Exportable PDF reports for record-keeping.
Remote Analysis: Data is processed in the cloud, with results displayed on the app in real time.
How the System Works
Sample Prep: Mix 50 µL of coffee/beverage with 50 µL of proprietary buffer (included with the device).
Testing: Load the mixture onto a single-use sensor and scan the assay’s QR code.
Results:
Instant readout on the app (e.g., caffeine concentration).
Full data synced to the cloud for further analysis.
Key Operational Details
Single-Use Sensors: Each test requires a new disposable sensor.
Buffer: 500 mL of buffer is provided (~10,000 tests possible with 50 µL per test).
Accuracy: Verified against known standards (e.g., Red Bull’s labeled 0.03% caffeine matches test results of ~0.3 mg/g).
Licensing:
1-year free license included.
Afterward, €99/month for cloud access and updates.
Multi-user access requires shared login or additional licenses.
Example Use Cases
Red Bull: Matches label claims (0.3 mg/g).
Coffee: Distinguishes caffeinated (e.g., 0.146 mg/g) from decaf (0 mg/g).
Raw Signals: Coffee shows complex peaks; energy drinks have cleaner signals.
