Yeah I found a few articles but not a whole lot of specifics. You're suggesting something like this box? http://www.optasense.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/FiberOpt...

I feel like it'd be really hard to break into this field without some data to play with. Catch-22...

If you have access/desire to share some data like this I'd love to chat more (email in bio). Sounds like an interesting problem.

All of our data is proprietary unfortunately. This leads to another start up idea: a data consortium company for this type of work. I don't think we would mind giving the data up if there was a legitimate way to do so and if there was some benefit for us (I.e. advancing the rate of progress in this field).

Interesting. I'm actually part of a agricultural genomics data consortium with similar concept (companies contribute $$ and data in exchange for licensing rights to research results).
