LIFY-AIR proposes to solve the equation capture / analysis / prediction in real time of pollens present in the air by creating the world's first miniaturized pollen sensor capable of detecting the presence of pollens in ambient air.
LIFY-AIR wishes to enable allergy sufferers to anticipate and better manage their allergy crises by taking their treatment at the beginning of the contamination in the asymptomatic phase.
Thanks to real-time, predictive and qualitative information, patients and their doctors will be able to better anticipate treatments, identify their potential allergies and adopt the right gestures and best practices during periods of pollen emissions.
LIFY-AIR's entire value proposition will ultimately make it possible to minimize allergy crises and strongly limit their financial and societal impacts.
Pollen allergies affect 25% of the world's population. They have risen sharply since the 1970s, from 7% to 25% in 2019, and will reach 50% in 2050.
Respiratory allergies, of which pollen allergies are a part, are the 1st cause of loss of productivity in the world, ahead of cardiovascular diseases.
7 million days of work stoppage/year, generating a cost (direct and indirect) of approximately €16 billion in France and €127 billion in Europe.
Migration of some plants, multiple annual flowering and increase in CO2 = plant growth
The structure of the pollen is modified when it is released by NO2* and SO3**, directly releasing the allergenic proteins.
* Nitrogen dioxide,** Sulphur trioxide
A unique technology, developed in collaboration with the CNRS, protected by a patent registration
Based on an optical process, invented and developed in collaboration with the researchers of the Laboratory "LPC2E", in only 12 Months.
Data generated in real time, to feed our pollen particle discrimination algorithms
Sensors currently deployed in a network in three French regions, for the experimentation phase.
Implementation of a dedicated IOT infrastructure
Remote management of the sensor pool
DATA infrastructure, for real-time calculations
Development of APIs for future data flow interoperability
In partnership with AWS, we have put in place a global, powerful and scalable infrastructure, to plan the scalability and implement our supervision, data science and security tools.

It passes!
After 5 years of experience at the CNRS, in our partner laboratory where he worked on particle detection devices, he joined different companies working on meteorological and environmental data as an electronic technician, embedded systems integrator and computer scientist. He is perfectly familiar with the technology we use: Digitization and Acquisition of optical data, signal processing and algorithms.

Esso-Ridah is 32 years old and holds a master's degree in "Econometric Statistics, Risk and Market Forecasting". After several experiences in the field where he worked as a "Data-Scientist" on notions of profitability analysis, he joined a "Startup" in the health sector for 18 months. He decided to resume his studies within the framework of a thesis at LIFY AIR in connection with IRISA (Vannes), on the subject of plant particle discrimination.
