For people with a gluten allergy it’s hard to find out if there’s gluten
in the food that they eat. They don’t have very much choice and sometimes the
ingredients are not listed on the packaging of products. For some people it can
be dangerous if they don’t know what’s in their food so we need something that
they can detect what’s in their food.
WHAT? According to
trendhunter.com there is a solution. And that is ‘the Canary’ a portable device
that can test gluten in foods. This gadget will help people with allergies and
it will prevent them from getting sick. The device is created by 6SensorLabs
and it is a pocket-sized device that has disposable units. You can put those
units in your dishes to test the gluten levels. The information will appear on
the device and you can track it by using a corresponding smartphone app.
WHY? People with allergies can now go out for dinner without worrying
about the food. It’s a great invention with a lot of potential. Maybe in the
future the device can not only track down if there are gluten in the food but
also other nutrients that are dangerous to other people like nuts or sugar. It’s
an example of an Inline device with the underlying value of people who are more
curious about what’s in their food these days. We’re much more conscious these
days about what we eat. If you have a gluten allergy this device is great,
because it can detect gluten in dishes. People don’t have to worry anymore if
they can eat something the device will do that for them. Devices will take over
a lot of functions from humans but sometimes it’s convenient. This is a great example of Inline. Because you take something offline (a measure instrument) and you make something online from it (a gadget).
