Instruction on how to install Colorimetric Sensor on Windows 10 Windows 11 PC & Laptop

In this post, I am going to show you how to install Colorimetric Sensor on Windows PC by using Android App Player such as BlueStacks, LDPlayer, Nox, KOPlayer, ...

Before you start, you will need to download the APK/XAPK installer file, you can find download button on top of this page. Save it to easy-to-find location.

[Note] You can also download older versions of this app on bottom of this page.

Below you will find a detailed step-by-step guide, but I want to give you a fast overview of how it works. All you need is an emulator that will emulate an Android device on your Windows PC and then you can install applications and use it - you see you're playing it on Android, but this runs not on a smartphone or tablet, it runs on a PC.

If this doesn't work on your PC, or you cannot install, comment here and we will help you!

  1. Install using BlueStacks
  2. Install using NoxPlayer

Step By Step Guide To Install Colorimetric Sensor using BlueStacks

  1. Download and Install BlueStacks at: https://www.bluestacks.com. The installation procedure is quite simple. After successful installation, open the Bluestacks emulator. It may take some time to load the Bluestacks app initially. Once it is opened, you should be able to see the Home screen of Bluestacks.
  2. Open the APK/XAPK file: Double-click the APK/XAPK file to launch BlueStacks and install the application. If your APK/XAPK file doesn't automatically open BlueStacks, right-click on it and select Open with... Browse to the BlueStacks. You can also drag-and-drop the APK/XAPK file onto the BlueStacks home screen
  3. Once installed, click "Colorimetric Sensor" icon on the home screen to start using, it'll work like a charm :D

[Note 1] For better performance and compatibility, choose BlueStacks 5 Nougat 64-bit read more

[Note 2] about Bluetooth: At the moment, support for Bluetooth is not available on BlueStacks. Hence, apps that require control of Bluetooth may not work on BlueStacks.

How to install Colorimetric Sensor on Windows PC using NoxPlayer

  1. Download & Install NoxPlayer at: https://www.bignox.com. The installation is easy to carry out.
  2. Drag the APK/XAPK file to the NoxPlayer interface and drop it to install
  3. The installation process will take place quickly. After successful installation, you can find "Colorimetric Sensor" on the home screen of NoxPlayer, just click to open it.

Turn your smartphone into a portable colorimetric sensor. ColorimetricSensing estimates the
concentration of a biochemical liquid — such as glucose, triglycerides or urea — directly from
a photo of the sample, with no spectrophotometer, no extra hardware and no internet connection.

The app is the official implementation of the peer-reviewed research paper "Smartphone-based
colorimetric sensor application for measuring biochemical material concentration" (Alawsi,
Proietti Mattia, Al-Bawi, Beraldi — Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research, Vol. 32, 2021, 100404).

**How it works**

ColorimetricSensing applies the Beer–Lambert law to the colour of your images. You capture a
blank (background) reference and a sample image; the app averages the red, green and blue
channels of both, derives the absorbance as A = −log10(sample / blank), and inverts the
Beer–Lambert equation A = ε · l · c to recover the concentration from the material's molar
absorptivity and the optical path length. Transmittance is reported as well.

**Features**

• Concentration prediction from a single pair of photos (blank + sample).
• Absorbance and transmittance measurement per sample.
• Organise work into sessions, each with its own material, device, camera and reference
background.
• Built-in materials table with molar absorptivity values, or enter your own.
• Optional linear-fit offset for improved calibration.
• Per-sample or per-session background, with in-app cropping to align sample and blank.
• Reference concentration input (mg/dl or mM) and difference-image visualisation.
• Copy computed values to the clipboard and save the difference image to your gallery.
• Works fully offline — no account, no cloud, low power consumption.

**Who is it for**

Researchers, students and lab technicians who need fast, portable, on-site colorimetric
measurements, and anyone interested in low-cost smartphone-based biochemical sensing.
