The objectives

Transforming Chemical Sensing Technology

Paeonia Innovations aimed to redefine the landscape of chemical sensing by developing a next-generation solution. Their objective was to create a compact, high-performance device that could deliver precise chemical measurements quickly and efficiently, reducing reliance on traditional bulky, fragile equipment. This innovation empowers industries to conduct chemical analysis in real-time, even in challenging environments where large, stationary equipment isn’t feasible.

Leveraging A*STAR’s Licensed IP and Research

To achieve this breakthrough, Paeonia collaborated closely with A*STAR’s Institute of Microelectronics (IME), licensing valuable intellectual property and advanced research from the Gap Project. By incorporating this licensed IP into their products, Paeonia set out to commercialize and bring A*STAR’s pioneering research to market, transforming it from laboratory innovation into practical, industry-ready technology.

Developing Industry-Leading Products

Energy efficiency is central to Through their innovative approach, Paeonia successfully developed the Mid-IR Spectrometer and the WI Model E Fuel Analyzer, both designed to meet industry demands for precision and efficiency. The Mid-IR Spectrometer enables chemical analysis with minimal sample volume and near-instant measurements. The WI Model E Fuel Analyzer, powered by Paeonia’s proprietary Cerebrum™ algorithm, delivers highly accurate fuel composition analysis, setting new standards for performance and reliability in chemical sensing. These devices set new standards for performance and reliability in chemical sensing.

Expanding Market Reach and Global Impact

Paeonia’s objective was not only to introduce innovative products but also to establish a significant global presence. With rigorous testing across North America, Europe and Asia, Paeonia demonstrated the scalability and reliability of their technology in diverse environments. This commitment to global standards of excellence is allowing Paeonia to drive operational efficiencies and new capabilities in chemical sensing worldwide.

The impact

As a successful A*STAR spin-off, Paeonia Innovations has not only brought IPs developed through A*STAR Gap Project to market but has also established itself as a leader in the global chemical sensing industry. Their flagship products, the Mid-IR Spectrometer and WI Model E Fuel Analyzer, showcase the power of Paeonia’s proprietary Cerebrum™ algorithm, achieving superior accuracy over traditional equipment in tests conducted across North America, Europe, and Asia.

Paeonia Innovations’ products are reshaping industries by enabling faster, more accurate chemical analysis, fostering growth in Singapore's technology landscape, and setting new standards for innovation in chemical sensing technology.
