Springfield, Missouri — May 12, 2025 — BioNAV® Health & Wellness is honored to announce its selection as one of the Top 80 Respiratory Innovators at this week’s American Thoracic Society Respiratory Innovation Summit in San Francisco (May 16–17, 2025). At the event, BioNAV® will debut its next generation Environmental Health Solutions, powered by the patent‑pending Air Particle ID™ process that transforms captured filter debris into real‑time, and actionable insights. RIS Pre-conference attendees are invited to visit the BioNAV® poster at space #112 to explore partnership opportunities that focus on proactive

respiratory care and personalized treatment.

From Filter Debris to Actionable Insights

While conventional air quality monitors sample ambient air, BioNAV® targets the particulate end‑point: the filter surface itself. High‑resolution imaging captures trapped pollen, mold spores, and other pollutants. And depending on the speed of the customer's network, an AI/ML object recognition workflow classifies each particle within seconds. The processed data flows to the Patient Mobile App, providing real‑time exposure‑avoidance alerts and allowing respiratory patients to proactively share environmental insights with their healthcare providers. By closing this loop, BioNAV offers a new non‑clinical pathway that connects long‑term particulate exposure to potential respiratory‑disease triggers.

A Four‑Step Patent‑Pending Protocol

1. Computer Vision Capture – Edge‑ or cloud‑connected cameras image debris on HVAC filters, conduit, and/or other means of capturing air particulates.
   

2. AI/ML Analysis – Flexible algorithms label each particle type and quantify load into "clean match" database formats.
   

3. Patient‑to‑Doctor Feedback – The EnviroShare™ network pairs exposure metrics with symptom logs.
   

4. Exposure Correlation Tracking – Clinicians correlate spikes with medication use, hospitalizations, medical history, or environmental events to tailor interventions.

Why It Matters

• Objective Exposure Data – Replaces vague patient symptom feedback with quantifiable triggers.
  

• Multi‑Industry Scalability – Works with microscopes, borescopes, laser, UV, IR, or radar imaging across any product that includes filtered air flow (Integrated microscopic computer vision and AI/ML network required).
  

• Rapid, Non‑Destructive Workflow – No slides, no lab delays—just time‑critical data analyzed from captured gas/air.
  

• Our Solutions – Our customers (licensed manufacturers) have the option to utilize their own unique AI/ML object recognition software or use 3rd party solutions.
  

  
  

A Glimpse of What’s Next—Three Perspectives

1. For Air‑Handling Manufacturers BioNAV’s edge‑ready camera modules and cloud APIs integrate into existing air handling systems or are implemented into new product designs; OEMs gain a new data layer they can monetize. Look for our upcoming retrofit kits, standalone air‑collection systems, and portable field‑technician packages—each designed to help licensed manufacturers quickly deliver their own value‑added solutions to their customers. 2. For End‑Users of Those Products Ideal for both residential and commercial applications such as building HVAC, laboratories, dental offices, specialized manufacturing, and even data‑center operators can now see exactly what their filters are trapping across every licensed device they own.

An example of our residential approach includes our unified EnviroShare™ mobile app combines and measures pollen counts from a patient's home HVAC unit, their vehicle‘s air cabin system, and/or from a personal wearable device, giving users a dashboard view from multiple product exposures.

3. For Healthcare Collaboration Users can display their analyzed exposure history to a physician during a patient visit, with the future goal to link the classified data to medical libraries and HIPPA compliant networks. The loop closes when patients see those changes reflected in fewer flare‑ups—proof that data‑driven proactive‑care can literally help them breathe easier.
