| Summary : |
FINGERIMBALL is a design concept that combines food profiling of excellence extrapolated primarily with omics technology and nanotechnology and aimed to create a Hight Quality Food identity card with the newICTs. The dataset obtained will be added on a microchip that in turn are the key to a smart new packagingdeveloped with the aim to combat the rampant counterfeiting of food products made in Italy and especiallythe brand of excellence also subject of Italian sounding phenomenon, an imitative counterfeiting.The project aims, with an approach completely original, innovative and multidisciplinary, a solution to thesephenomena whose contrast is one of the pillars of the past and, especially, the future EU policy, national andindeed regional.Introduce systems that can protect the production of excellence byimplementing technologies to combat counterfeiting becomes an imperative. Based on these considerations,the project, which sees a strong collaboration between different universities and research centers andcompanies operating in the territories of the convergence will develop innovative systems to combatcounterfeiting of food on the international market. The working hypothesis involves the construction, forevery high quality product, the fingerprinting on authentication selectively encoded and stored on aninnovative miniature microchip self-maintained. The chip will then be integrated in a package for its innovative features not only cannot be altered but contain within it the information necessary to authenticate the product inside. |
