Ainos Inc., a pioneer in AI-driven scent digitization, unveiled its revolutionary AI Nose™ platform at COMPUTEX 2025, marking a major leap in machine perception. Developed through 13 years of research, the AI Nose digitizes smells into unique "Smell IDs" using MEMS gas sensor arrays and deep learning models. Initially focused on healthcare applications, the technology is now being adapted for broader use in robotics, environmental monitoring, and smart manufacturing. With over 99% accuracy in lab development and strong performance in live settings, AI Nose represents a transformative advancement in sensory technology, offering machines the ability to perceive scent—traditionally a human-only sensory domain.
This groundbreaking innovation is being showcased in collaboration with ugo Inc., Japan’s leading service robotics company, demonstrating real-time robotic olfaction for the first time. At COMPUTEX 2025, the AI Nose platform is featured in robotics systems capable of detecting hygiene issues, chemical threats, and diagnostic signals across various settings—from elder care facilities to semiconductor manufacturing environments. This convergence of olfactory AI and robotics expands the role of smart machines in safety, diagnostics, and infrastructure management, enhancing automation with a previously unattainable sensory dimension.
With the e-nose market projected to reach $76.5 billion by 2032, Ainos is well-positioned to lead the emerging "SmellTech" industry. The strategic partnership with ugo Inc. and other global players reflects Ainos’ vision of integrating scent as a new data layer in AI systems. As COMPUTEX 2025 emphasizes the theme of “AI Next,” Ainos’ AI Nose sets a bold precedent—establishing scent as the next frontier in AI, unlocking new pathways for robotics, healthcare, and edge intelligence worldwide.
