Challenge
Panasonic Deep Tech Innovation Challenge 1 aims to identify high potential companies with emerging technologies to partner with Panasonic's smell/odor detection capabilities in various applications such as industrial safety, food manufacturing/retailing, hospitals, workplaces, schools and homes.
What are the challenges?
Challenge 1
Odor Sensing
As digitalization and the development of technologies such as IoT is increasing the level of convenience in society, there has not been new approaches developed to resolve emerging social issues.
Panasonic would like to contribute to the resolution of issues in society where Panasonic's approach of using odor sensing technology can be effective. Using its ultra-high sensitivity odor technology that is able to ‘visualize the invisible’, Panasonic hopes to create a healthy, safe and secure society.
Challenge 2
Stress Detection by Human Skin-Gas Sensing
Today we can easily observe the effects of declined productivity and happiness levels due to excessive stress at work, in school and at home.
Although there have been many solutions invented, there has not been an impactful and effective solution developed that is able to transform our lives. Panasonic wants to develop a solution that is able to target the root cause of stress.
