What future trends will impact the direction of the gelatin industry?
Technological advancements are a key trend gaining popularity in the gelatin market. Integration of AI provides an opportunity for use of gelatin in various applications. Artificial intelligence technology is used to mimic the sense of olfaction. For example, the Biomolecular Engineering Lab at UCIBIO in Lisbon Nova School of Science and Technology (FCT-NOVA), led by Cecilia showed an example of intelligent gelatin, an innovative engineered material for smelling that has a soft matter in artificial olfaction, an intelligent gas sensing device that mimics the sense of smell. Artificial olfaction involves volatile compounds, that makeup odors and bind to specialized olfactory proteins in the nose. These binding events are responsible for sending electrical signals to the brain, where pattern recognition is performed and the odor is identified. This infusion has a variety of applications such as clinical diagnostics, soft bioelectronics, wearable devices, and robotics
