Abstract:
1. A device for analyzing matter containing volatile components, the device comprising: a chamber for receiving and containing a matter sample under stable thermal conditions; at least one first sensor arranged in the chamber for sensing a vapor phase of the sample; at least one second sensor arranged in the chamber for sensing a no-vapor phase of the sample; at least one third sensor arranged in the chamber for sensing temperature into the chamber; at least one fourth sensor arranged in the chamber for sensing humidity into the chamber; an electronic circuit connected to said sensors for a simultaneous and real time analysis of vapour and non-vapour phases of the sample, and a computing platform that comprises at least one pattern-recognizing program and/or a multivaried-data analysis program, wherein the electronic circuit simultaneously acquires data from the sensors and transmits the data to the computing platform so as to simultaneously evaluating odor and taste of the analyzed matter.
