The Onsite-W is compatible with the innovative VIAVILab mobile solution, enabling remote sample identification through iOS or Android devices. The VIAVILab™ Suite comprises three main components:
-
Mobile app
-
Web app
-
Web-based chemometric modeling package
The mobile app features an intuitive interface, allowing users to perform real-time scanning and identification of plastic samples effortlessly.
The VIAVILab Mobile App wirelessly connects to the Onsite-W, enabling rapid sample identification in just one second with a single button press
Results are displayed directly on the mobile device screen, and users can input the sample name manually or via a barcode scanner
Each scan can include an attached photo and geolocation tag, which syncs seamlessly with the VIAVILab web app. Access is secured through User ID and password authentication
The web app also provides fleet management capabilities for the MicroNIR Onsite-W devices, allowing administrators to assign users to specific methods and instruments while monitoring activity remotely
Example of plastic waste
Plastic recycling involves collecting and reprocessing discarded plastics into new, usable items. Since most plastics are non-biodegradable, recycling efforts focus on reducing their environmental impact, especially considering the estimated 8 million metric tons of plastic waste entering the oceans annually. Unlike metals, which are economically viable to recycle, plastics present challenges due to their bulky nature and relatively low market value. Recycling facilities also face technical difficulties in sorting and processing different types of plastics. The MicroNIR Onsite-W provides a powerful handheld tool that allows even inexperienced users to quickly identify various plastic types in less than a second.
