Scope: The projects aim to develop sensor systems for real-time control of agricultural processes, in particular when it comes to health and food quality monitoring of crops and fruit, gas sensing and air quality. Main result achieved: OnePlanet has established an application and sensor specifications and determined the feasibility of using the photonic sensor systems

Scope: The project aims to collaborate with the Vencomatic Group to integrate near-infrared sensing technology into poultry and egg handling industrial machinery. Main result achieved: Mantispectra has identified a suitable light source, developed and tested new readout electronics to meet integration requirements and developed and tested new firmware. As a result, its photonic sensors are

Scope: The project aims to develop hardware modules and software platforms to enable the integration of the ChipSense sensor. Main result achieved: MantiSpectra has further improved the mechanical stability, dust resistance and range of its existing handheld sensor and developed analytical tools to simplify the evaluation of the measurement for end users.

Scope: This project focuses on developing sensor systems based on integrated photonics for real-time control of agrifood production processes. An add-on project, “Acceleration of the Gas Sensing Roadmap from NH3 to GHG Sensor Systems,” aims to secure the accelerated gas detection work of OnePlanet, targeting ammonia and greenhouse gas detection systems. In the past year,

Scope: The project aims to develop and demonstrate a complete compact integrated photonics biosensing system. Main result achieved: TU Delft has so far given an overview of existing technologies and key problems while also mapping the sensor-system characteristics necessary to provide the desired measurements and designing the automatic fibre alignment, photonic chip, and microfluidic system.
