Aromyx

Aromyx Corporation digitizes, stores and indexes taste and scent data.

Aromyx has built a platform for the digital capture of scent and taste – including the EssenceChip taste and scent sensor – that puts the human olfactory and taste receptors onto a disposable biochip, with a digital readout. The Aromyx platform includes the Allegory software suite, AromaGraph family of visual analytics, recommended taste/scent recording standards, access to the growing Aromyx online database of taste and scent data and related machine-learning algorithms. Unlike chemical sensors or mass spectrometry, the Aromyx EssenceChip system shows the biochemical signals that a cup of coffee, a sniff of perfume or a glass of wine send to the brain, as mediated by the human nose and tongue.
