Digital Olfaction Module, version 1

September 2023

First tests of version 01 of our proof-of-concept digital olfaction module at CNRS Lyon. A sample odor is recognised by the e-nose and mapped to a stimulation, which is felt by a volunteer in real-time.

Scientific Meeting Milano

15th September 2022

Representatives from all members of the consortium gathered in Milan (Italy) on the 15th of September 2022 in order to discuss the achievements and next steps of the Rose project. The latest versions of the odor sensor and of the stimulating array were presented. Thanks to these advances and the cooperation between work packages, the first multi-centric study involving human testing will be launched in the autumn.  Consortium members were given an overview of the PoliMi lab’s facilities for mechanical design and the creation of scenarios for future proof-of-concept using virtual reality.

Meeting of the Advisory Board

lunch break

Members of the scientific advisory board, Martin Witt, Agnieszka Sorokowska, Bernard Perroud, and Jack Bikker, met with representatives from all seven project partner institutes at CRNL Lyon on the 28th June 2022. The session included a project overview, followed by short presentations outlining the objectives, status, and upcoming effort in each of the seven work packages. The day was productive and enjoyable, and the general consensus was that there is tangible evidence of progress having been made in the first year of the project. The presentations demonstrated considerable interaction between researchers in different institutions. We are therefore leveraging our expertise to move the work forward effectively. Obviously we have a long way to go, but we are up for the challenge!
