New Award / Teknofest – Odor Sensing

Science and technology were developed by being inspired by elements in nature. By reducing the whole spectrum of light to three colors, printing technology, cameras and cinema industry emerged. The recording industry was created when sound became measurable by breaking it down into frequencies. From phonograph records to iPods and even sound signature, many developments have occurred. The more precisely pressure can be measured, the more advanced smartphones, digital drawing technologies, and fingerprint reading systems can progress. Smell, as a sense that has not yet been quantified, is a potential area for new breakthroughs in science and technology. The Q Lab, one of Medipol SABITA laboratories, was awarded the best presentation award in the “Artificial Intelligence in Health” category at TEKNOFEST 2022 for the Odor Sensing project that aims to distinguish two odors by bringing together the means of electrophysiology and artificial intelligence tools. We would like to congratulate our researchers who contributed to the project; Muhammed İkbal Alp, Mehmet Kemal Ozdemir, Buse Nur Fidan, Nazende Yagmur Uysal and Senanur Demirci. We would like to thank Medipol TTO project team members Sultan Gül and Büşra Aykut, who supported the team during the competition process.
