  1. Food Safety and Quality with Microsystems GoodFood: Food Safety and Quality with Microsystems. FP6-IST1-508774-IP

  2. Objectives • To promote the use of Micro@Nano Technologies (MNT) in the agro-food world devoted to the quality and safety control. • To introduce the paradigm of Ambient Intelligence for a better communication, and decision taking process • To take advantage of such technologies for introducing the idea smart agro-food processing GoodFood: Food Safety and Quality with Microsystems. FP6-IST1-508774-IP

  4. What Microsystems can contribute to Agrofood? • GoodFoodMicro & Nano Systems alternative: • Fast response and less reactive consumption • Electric output – low cost • Small dimensions - portability • Autonomous Functioning (Non human intervention, non-’expert’ based systems) • Pervasive and ubiquitous solutions Compliant with the Ambient Intelligent vision • Current solution based on: • Lab analysis (costly and time consuming) • ‘Expert’ human intervention (subjectivity) • Destructive, not massive GoodFood: Food Safety and Quality with Microsystems.
