kickstart a whole new wave of search
engineering. SCiO is a portable
scanning device that is capable of scanning
and identifying materials off surfaces of
objects, such as foodstuff, medicine and
plans, and sends the relevant information
about the scanned materials to your phone.
The device scans items and materials by
using near-infrared spectroscopy, which is
opposed to mid-infrared spectroscopy
which is more commonly used. The former
has a higher level of energy, and as such is
capable of penetrating deeper into the
surface. The material can then be analysed
for their components with a higher degree
of precision. In medicine, this technology is
already being used to determine the level of
oxygen within a patient’s body.
