Nanomechanical sensors with AI towards standard olfactory IoT sensing system

Summary form only. The newly developed nanomechanical sensor platform "Membrane-type Surface stress Sensor (MSS)", is an ideal platform for olfactory IoT sensing system owing to its high sensitivity, selectivity, and compactness. To meet the requirements for s consumer sensor system, however, further optimization and integration of lots of components are required. To establish a de facto standard for smell analysis and sensor systems employing the MSS technology, the "MSS Alliance" was launched jointly with companies and a university. Recently, the "MSS Forum" was also launched to encourage participants from public to carry out experiments demonstrating the performance of MSS technology developed by the alliance.
