Problem
Current methods for water quality monitoring often rely on manual sampling and laboratory analysis, which are time-consuming, expensive, and provide only intermittent snapshots of water conditions. The lack of continuous, real-time data hinders timely intervention and optimization in various aquatic environments.
Solution
Dottir Labs offers a real-time, non-destructive chemical analysis system for water monitoring, leveraging Raman spectroscopy and optical fiber networks. Their technology enables continuous detection of nutrients, metabolic markers, and waste products directly in aquatic environments. A network of optical fibers connects multiple reagent-free sensors over extended distances, all powered by a single laser source. The system provides continuous or timed measurements, delivering real-time data for immediate insights. Dottir Labs also employs data analytics to build predictive models and offer actionable recommendations based on the sensor data.
Target Audience
Dottir Labs serves customers in agriculture, environmental monitoring, aquaculture, ocean exploration, and water treatment industries who require continuous, real-time water quality data.
