  <title><![CDATA[Variable Works with NASA to Rapidly Develop Covid-19 Detection Device]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Georgia Tech ECE alumnus George Yu&#39;s company Variable, Inc. was awarded a NASA subcontract to prototype a NASA COVID-19 detection device called the E-Nose in 2020. Variable successfully produced the electronics and packaging for it along with a paired mobile app for the agency to test its nanosensor array technology developed by NASA&rsquo;s Ames Research Center for the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in COVID-19 patient&rsquo;s breath.</p>

<p>Variable is known around the world for their reliable and accurate color communication tools like the patented <a class="nonblock" href="https://variableinc.com/color-muse.html">Color Muse&reg;</a> and <a class="nonblock" href="https://variableinc.com/spectro-1.html">Spectro 1</a> devices. The team has a specialized skill set in developing new sensor technology, building on a history of creating devices that could detect temperatures and complex gases among other components.</p>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
