Spicy

PiQuat participated in the Seoul South Korea pavilion at CES 2021 to present a spectroscopic technique that solved the noise problem. 
Spectroscopy is a personalized, light-based component analysis solution that can measure any substance down to the molecular level, regardless of its solid, liquid or gas form. However, there is too much noise during the measurement process, and it is too big and too expensive. As a result, PiQuant has developed a unique noise cancellation technology that distinguishes and suppresses signals from noise, and has improved the signal to noise ratio (SNR) to 48,000 times.

With our technology, we can make a small, inexpensive spectrometer while maintaining high sensitivity. It has a measurement reliability very similar to that of the expensive spectrometer in the laboratory. We have filed for 17 patents for spectroscopic technology and registered six patents. We work with global partners in various industries. Our spectroscope can be applied in a variety of fields such as smart homes, smart cities, smart factories, smart farms, and healthcare.
