Nanohorizons' Humidity Sensor is made up of deposited nano-structured materials as column-void network silicon that provide large surface area for detecting subtle changes in humidity, such as that from inhalation and exhalation, with fast response and recovery-time. Its sensitivity enables measurement and recording of respiration rate (# of breath cycles/minute). Potential products integrated with the Breathing Sensor include:
  1. Respiratory monitor for neonates and infants in critical care
  2. Sleep apnea diagnostic or monitoring device for sleep disorder patients, and
  3. Disposable infant resiratory monitor for home-use
 
  Applications/Markets Include:
  • Apnea detection / monitoring
  • Neo-natal monitoring
  • Industrial monitoring
Advantages:
  • First-in-class technology and product
  • Miniature size
  • Low cost
  • Sensitive
  • Reliable
  • Adaptable to a wide variety of materials
