NIMA by San Francisco company 65Sensor Labs is a sleek, portable and convenient smartphone-enabled sensor that sniffs out gluten in approximately two minutes and responds with a smile display if the food is gluten-free and safe to eat. This is especially important for people who have celiac disease or severe wheat allergies. The company has also stated that they are looking into adding other ingredient modules in the future.
