26/01/2015

AmbiSense, a recent Dublin City University spin-out company has been shortlisted for the Irish Times Innovation of the Year Award. This is a fantastic achievement for this young High Potential Start-up emanating from DCU’s National Centre for Sensor Research.

The company is bringing to market innovative and disruptive technology enabling autonomous environmental monitoring. It has been developed for the landfill and biogas markets but also has multiple applications in other high growth markets including unconventional gas and oil, contaminated land and waste water treatment.

The technology is the first of its kind, suitable for permanent deployment on-site and requires minimal site work to install and maintain. AmbiSense enables remote monitoring of gas levels from any web-enabled device allowing the customer to better understanding the gas behaviour on-site ultimately leading to increased biogas utilisation and superior pollution detection & mitigation.
