Cannabix Technologies Reaches Development Milestone with Marijuana Breathalyzer Devices

UF startup Cannabix Technologies, Inc., developer of marijuana breathalyzer devices for law enforcement and the workplace, reports that engineers have completed assembly of a handheld portable version of the (UBC) THC Breath Analyzer and are preparing the device to build upon promising human tests conducted in Kelowna BC. Engineers have reduced the size of several components inside the THCBA for a compact handheld device and are conducting extensive lab testing with the new device. The THC Breath Analyzer (“THCBA”) incorporates sensitive microfluidic sensor technology for the detection of ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) from breath. Furthermore, several software upgrades are being completed to use cloud-based machine learning (ML) techniques to process data more quickly. Initial ML analysis will be performed by experts at UBC. The newly built THCBA is available at cannabixtechnologies.com.

Rav Mlait, Cannabix CEO, stated, “Our team is working intensely on our devices for the law enforcement and workplace markets. Several additional police, private, and government-related agencies have been in touch with Cannabix this fall, showing interest in piloting our devices. Furthermore, we are seeing police and others becoming more open to new technologies related to cannabis impairment detection. We are very excited about the additional prospects for the THCBA because of its single-stage, direct breath capability, compact portable design, and ability to provide results quickly.”
