Is this an opportunity for Apple (or similar) buy this technology/company and apply it to their phones? Could this be a leap in bio-tracking for individuals/athletes?
If it's general enough and durable enough (like not having to replace a chip / filter every time it's used), I don't think it's hyperbole to think of the possible applications more broadly.
Would be a step toward the ol' Star-Trek tricorder. They say it can detect various organic molecules. I wonder if it has potential for non-invasive blood testing, e.g. blood glucose. If it is general purpose, could it indicate other potential health conditions? More broadly could you scan your drink at the bar for illicit substances? Would it detect noxious gasses in your vicinity?
Definitely feels like a decent step in that direction.
