Autonomous Innovations, Inc. (AII) is actively developing several exciting new sensor-based products, spanning from mountain biking to homeland security!

On Oct 6, 2009 ANDalyze announced the AND1000 Fluorimeter, a handheld platform that offers simple, fast, inexpensive and reliable detection of trace metals and other target chemicals. AII developed the AND1000 electronics, optics, and embedded firmware. For more information on the AND1000, see the Press Release and the ANDalyze website.

Many other projects are underway, building on AII's electronics, sensor, and software expertise. A new revision of the Sensor Hub was developed, capable of adding wired and wireless environmental monitoring in addition to all the existing features. The new device will also be able to transmit its readings using Wi-Fi, Cellular Internet, or even Satellite. The wireless sensor networks use AII's ZigBee PRO sensor modules which are extremely low-powered end-devices, that communicate with each other as a mesh network. Also under development is a wireless physiological sensor for monitoring the human body, including heart rate, skin temperature, humidity, g-forces, and oxygen saturation.

Development also continues in IAS's visual analysis application, capable of plotting dozens of time-synced charts of sensor readings. The latest version has an integrated 3D mapping capability, a personal track database, and the ability to play and synchronize videos with the sensor data. All of the graphs and KML tracks found in the sample data section were also created with this software.

AII recently completed a working prototype of a fluorescence-based sensor for detecting lead in water. AII's custom hardware, software, and user-friendly interface helped ANDalyze (formerly DzymeTech, Inc.) take first place at a recent EPA awards ceremony for emerging sensor technologies out of more than 100 entries.

To complement the above remote sensor technologies, AII is working on the integration of sensor data collection and management into the versatile emergency managment application, NeXEO, from Innovative Autonomous Systems, LLC. The combined sensor and application-level software will provide an impressive end-to-end solution for emergency management agencies at every level, as well as private industry and production facilities. Using AII developed hardware and software, live sensor data from remote moving vehicles has successfully been inserted and monitored in real-time from the web-browser based NeXEO.

Partnering with Caviton, Inc. and other companies, AII continues to develop custom hardware and intuitive user interfaces for a variety of sensor-based applications.
