Indoor vertical farming is pivotal for addressing future food challenges, particularly in arable land-scarce countries. One common method is hydroponics, which uses mineral and nutrient solutions in a water-based platform to grow crops. To optimize the crop yield and to reduce the man work hours required, it is important to automate crop health monitoring and replenishing of specific nutrients. Currently, these tasks are labour-intensive and subjective. While some imaging techniques exist for detecting plant stress and chlorophyll monitoring, a complete system covering all aspects is still lacking. For nutrient analysis, tools like pH and electroconductivity meters can only detect a change in the nutrient composition to start a feedback loop but are unable to determine the specific nutrient component or deficiency level. This technology is a comprehensive quantitative monitoring system integrating imaging spectroscopy and laser-based elemental spectroscopy to quickly identify the crop growth stages, alert crop stresses (tested on several lettuce species) and quantify specific nutrient levels in the nutrient supply. This allows for reduced man work hours and improvement of crop yield.

With the global trend of industrial automation, robotic arm technology is being developed and integrated to existing business workflow, increasing labour productivity and operational efficiency. However, current end effectors attached to robotic arm excels in automation tasks of handling homogeneous robust objects but fall short in handling irregular, fragile objects. Current robotic grippers (end effector) lack the finesse and limberness required, limiting their usage in particular areas such as agriculture, F&B, pharmaceutical and logistics. The technology solution developed is a smart soft robotic gripper as a modular end effector that addresses the challenge of handling objects with varying sizes, shapes, and weights, an issue unsolved by traditional robotic grippers. This innovative gripper tool mimics the flexibility and versatility of biological structures like tendrils, enabling an extra dimension of growth and twining capabilities. By wrapping itself securely around objects, the gripper manipulates items gently, minimizing the risk of crushing or damaging them. Its integrated sensors provide real-time contact feedback capabilities, enabling precise monitoring and adaptive control by the robotic system. The technology owner is seeking collaborative partners, such as system integrators or end-users, who are in need and keen to integrate a versatile, adaptive, and gentle handling solution that can operate efficiently in environments where object fragility or irregularity is a key concern. The smart soft robotic gripper module comprises of three key components: flexible fingers, actuation system and sensor integration. A novel concept is introduced for a flexible finger, utilizing a single tendon within a flexible body to perform three-dimensional bending and twisting motions. This design enhances the gripper’s adaptability, allowing it to handle objects with various shapes, sizes, and weights, with current payload exceeding 10kg. The integration of vision and haptic sensors further refines its capabilities to provide gentle and precise manipulation of delicate items. Additionally, the sensor integration supports potential applications in sensor fusion and IoT systems, expanding its utility across advanced automation environments like smart farms and smart factories. With its modular design, it enables customisation and scalability to integrate into existing robotic systems. Handling of Food (urban farming, food and beverages) The gripper solution can gently handle delicate crops like bunches of vegetables and irregularly shaped fruits, which can facilitate automated harvesting or processing with minimal damage. Its adaptability makes it potentially suitable for smart farms where precision and adaptability are essential. A pilot test for harvesting automation is currently being conducted in an urban farming application. Smart Factories (warehousing, manufacturing) The gripper solution is able to handle a variety of fragile and odd-shaped product, providing flexibility to environments of heterogenous items. The technology also enables safe handling of items, promoting industrial automation of delicate assemblies and improving assembly precision. Pharmaceuticals (medical device, procedures) The gripper tool can handle sensitive medical devices and products to minimise or prevent damaging during handling. The tool is able to provide additional assistance to medical personnel for more delicate medical procedures, reducing discomfort while increasing precision. The smart soft robotic gripper is bio-inspired and mimics natural organism, like octopus arms, to enhance navigation and interaction with their surroundings. This results in an extra dimension of flexibility and versatility to handle intrinsic nonlinearity of soft, delicate, heterogenous materials. The integrated sensors enable situational awareness capabilities, providing adaptability and enhancing precision. Lastly, the modular design provides customisability to specific use-cases, with the gripper being able to be scaled to suit the operational needs.

Root rot diseases in food crops are devastating diseases currently without solution. Examples of such diseases are the Basal Stem Rot in oil palms, Fusarium Wilt in bananas, and Phytophthora Root Rot in citrus.  While fungicides have in vitro efficacy, most do not possess phloem mobility and therefore cannot reach the roots to effect treatment. Thus, despite widespread usage of fungicides, root rot diseases are still inadequately treated or are not treated at all. This Nano Delivery Technology imparts phloem mobility to fungicides, allowing them to reach the roots from the application site to treat and protect the crops. The technology is designed as a ready-to-use adjuvant that works with commercialised fungicides. Growers can independently and safely nano encapsulate the fungicides with basic mixing equipment and a simple, one-step mixing process. This technology is patent-pending and ready to market.

With mounting concerns regarding the environmental and health impacts of conventional chemical pesticides, there is a noticeable shift towards biological alternatives. This trend is fueled by a global demand for sustainable agricultural practices and safer, more environmentally-friendly produce. However, a significant challenge persists: the comparatively lower efficacy of biological pesticides. This technology addresses the challenge of low efficacy in biological pesticides, often caused by environmental factors such as heat, UV exposure, and runoffs, especially prevalent in tropical regions. It utilises plant-derived, biodegradable materials to encapsulate the biological pesticides, protecting them from environmental factors, thereby extending their residual treatment effect and reducing usage volumes and re-application frequencies.  Plant-derived, biodegradable encapsulation material Compatible with commercialised biological pesticides (e.g., bacillus thuringiensis) Simple, one-step encapsulation process completed within 15 minutes using existing mixing apparatus Compatible with existing application equipment such as backpack sprayers and drones Imparts rainfastness within 1 hour Sustains residual effect for up to 3 months per treatment The technology demonstrates versatility, with potential applicability in tackling an array of agricultural challenges such as diseases, weeds, and nutrient deficiencies.

Unsafe and contaminated food poses significant global health risks, affecting approximately one in ten people worldwide and leading to economic losses of around $110 billion annually in low and middle-income countries due to reduced productivity and medical expenses. This issue also accounts for an annual burden of 33 million disability-adjusted life years and causes about 420,000 premature deaths. Additionally, the escalating use of pesticides in food production to meet the demands of a growing population contributes to approximately 200,000 deaths each year due to toxic exposure, posing severe threats to both human health and the environment.  This technology, Plasma Activated Water (PAW) provides an eco-friendly, chemical-free decontamination technique which eradicates residual chemicals, inhibiting microbial growth in agricultural produce. The technology is highly effective (95% reliability) in breaking down organic compounds, including pesticides, and destroying microbial pathogens on the surfaces of fruits and vegetables, resulting in an extended shelf-life.  PAW eliminates the need for potentially toxic chemicals for washing, minimizes chemical residues, reducing environmental impact and agricultural losses, thereby lowering costs. It effectively degrades pesticides, enhancing food safety while maintaining nutritional quality and sensory qualities.   The technology owner is seeking collaborations with agricultural companies or Institutes of Higher Learning to test-bed their technology.  Plasma Activated Water (PAW) is an innovative technology that harnesses the reactive properties of plasma to enhance the characteristics of water. The process involves generating an electrical discharge in a gaseous environment, creating a plasma rich in reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). The use of pin-hole technology allows for precise and controlled plasma generation at the required intensity and location. This technique involves creating a small, focused plasma jet through a pin-hole or narrow aperture, which directs the plasma stream accurately to the target area. This precision ensures effective application, reducing the risk of unintended exposure and increasing treatment efficacy. The focused nature of the plasma jet also minimizes diffusion, resulting in more efficient energy use and lower operational costs. The reactive species interact with the surface of agricultural produce, they effectively deactivate or destroy pathogens, bacteria, and pesticide residues. PAW technology significantly enhances food safety by reducing contaminants in produce by over 50-80%, compared to just 30% with standard water washes.  This technology has the potential to transcend agricultural applications, harnessing its pathogen- and bacteria-destroying capabilities.  Healthcare and Medical Sector: Can be used to irrigate wounds, leveraging its strong antimicrobial properties to clean and disinfect wound sites, promoting faster healing and preventing infections Industrial Wastewater Treatment: To treat industrial wastewater by breaking down pollutants and pathogens, ensuring that the treated water meets environmental regulations  Superior Decontamination Efficiency: Highly Effective: PAW technology significantly reduces contaminants, achieving over 50-80% reduction in pathogens and pesticide residues compared to just 30% with standard water washes.

Only 20% of actual coffee is extracted from beans to produce coffee in its beverage form, leaving the remaining 80% (six million tons annually) deemed as spent coffee grounds (SCG) to be disposed or used in landfills or as non-food product components to make fertilisers, furniture, deodorisers or skin care products. A technology was created to counteract SCG wastage and valorise it for human consumption. This particular invention comprises of methodologies to create two types of ingredients using leftover SCG - oil-grind and water-grind processed SCG. A simple, reproducible method of conching is employed to convert leftover SCG into smooth pastes, where specific conching parameters help refine the SCG to an acceptable particle size, eliminating grittiness in numerous valorised products similar to SCG. The product utilises common ingredients like oil and water to conche SCG with improved taste and textural properties. The shelf stability and nutritional composition (including caffeine) of the ingredients were also validated to ensure the food possessed good sensorial properties and are scale up ready. This technology increases SCG’s potential use as a versatile ingredient in different food applications. The technology provider is seeking off-takers from food manufacturers, food services industry, companies interested to valorise side streams to turn SCG into edible compounds. Technology Features: Uses reproducible method of conching into a functional ingredient with high insoluble dietary fibre (13g/100g) content. Fibre content is higher than instant coffee powder (<1g/100g) and coffee flavourings (0g/100g) and Lower caffeine levels (133mg/100g) compared to regular coffee (3600mg/100g) and is similar to decaffeinated beverages Sodium (<3mg/100g) and sugar free (<0.1g/100g)  Additive free (clean label) Specifications: SCG with particle size ranging between 4.82µm D(v,0.1) to 39.3 µm D[4,3] Moisture content 58.6% The technology was validated by incorporating SCG ingredients into a range of common food products such as beverages and ice cream (water-grind SCG), spreads and chocolate (oil-grind SCG) to help relevant food industries gain a deeper understanding of SCG valorisation, for a greater adoption among food manufacturers to create products using SCG. Can be developed into Ready-to-Drink (RTD) beverages, coffee ice cream, coffee spreads and confectionary (e.g. chocolates and cakes) Companies specialising in upcycling sidestreams and sustainability can explore this technology   Coffee consumption in Singapore increased by 4.8% in the last seven years with 105000, 60kg bags of coffee consumed in 2023 and the market is growing. There is a global push to reduce food side streams and Singapore's Zero Waste Masterplan on the treatment of such side streams by commercial and industrial generators, which aligns with the proposition of this technology. Similar technologies such as these may not be as cost effective. The technology uses basic ingredients such as water and oil and is easily reproducible. It does not involve high CAPEX investment or vigorous training processes that disrupts production process. Conching machines are commercially available, and the licensee can choose to purchase the equipment based on their production scale requirements. The conching process is easy to pick up. In addition, replacing coffee flavouring agents with SCG, customers can benefit from the natural and functional coffee flavour and caffeine SCG imparts into all the food applications. The product is rich in insoluble fibre which can help to regulate blood cholesterol and glucose levels. Caffeine is known to stimulate the Central Nervous System (CNS) in the body, which can improve cognitive abilities (e.g. alertness, reaction time).

Fast crop disease management is important to ensure sustainable production. Many tropical crops suffer from infectious diseases that spread and kill plantations. Previously, new land had to be allocated to replant crops in disease-free areas. This is now more challenging because land conversion implies deforestation. Thus, one way to improve the metrics of both production and sustainability is by testing for infection before moving the non-infectious material (i.e. in nurseries). However, as PCR testing in tropical countries is more challenging due to logistics and other factors, testing on-site would be a preferred option. This technology is a unique, portable, self-administered DNA detection kit to be used directly on-site to test for the DNA of the pathogen (virus, fungus etc.). Developed in Switzerland, the technology has already shown one use case for cocoa testing in West Africa and is shipped in the country without a cold chain. The average development time needed to create a custom DNA test kit to fit a specific crop disease is 4 weeks.  The developed kit will encompass sample preparation, isothermal amplification, and detection with a small device capturing data, timestamp and GPS location. Simple to use, with no technical equipment or methods: no spin-columns, no centrifuges, no thermo-cycler, no gel electrophoresis. A non-technician can pick up the skillset in a day. Average hands-on time with the DNA test kit is 5 minutes and results can be obtained within 1 hour. After sample preparation, the device has been shown to be robust enough to tolerate agitation (e.g. moving car in a jungle), minimising waiting time on-site. The technology can be applied in Integrated Pest Management Breeding  - identifying DNA markers for beneficial traits of novel varieties Commodity Trading  - predicting crop harvest quantities, for companies working with tropical crops like cocoa, coffee, tea, rice, banana or cassava. Test data aggregation/intelligence services can also be developed to support efforts in development of novel breeds/varieties, deployment of novel agro-forestry protocols, production of pathogen-free planting material, longer term yield forecast from identification of asymptomatic infected farms and sale of precision chemicals (biostimulants, fertilizers, pesticides) based on test result evidence. The DNA testing technology, in theory, applies also to animal diseases (i.e. aquaculture). This market area has not been developed by the company but can be explored on a preliminary basis.    Paradigm shift in the food industry, with customers expecting to see displays of sustainability, welfare, quality and ethics – to help inform and validate their food choices Global movement to hold food companies accountable for their supply chains has uniquely positioned testing, inspection and certification as a core solution that can be achieved with this technology. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), plant diseases cost the global economy around $220 billion each year. There is a significant upside potential to expand the technology capabilities to other identified growth markets Test done on-site in tropical areas (temperature, humidity) without strict cold chain which traditional methods like PCR require, allowing for first mile testing. Early detection of infections in asymptomatic crops reduces the disease impact on production yield and sustainability metrics (less deforestation) Life Sciences, Agriculture & Aquaculture
