blimey actually missed this bit on the quick read this morning. basically they have massive installed base already its just a case of adding the real time covid system to it? its just a simple upgrade for existing customers?
Over the last number of months, the teams have designed nano-photonic microchips coated with Affirmers and Aptamers that bind to a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 virus. Detection of binding of the target, in real time, has been achieved using a nanophotonic process. In collaboration with the team at Modern Water, Microtrace OVA systems, originally designed to detect contamination in water for chemicals, trace metals and a range of pathogens has been retrofitted with the Rinocloud AI based Novel Sensor to detect and identify SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens. These OVA system units have been installed in hundreds of sites worldwide over the last 30 years and form the basis of the roll out of the Novel Sensor into 2021.
