Abstract: This present invention relates to a comprehensive mold testing system capable of capturing high-resolution photographs of mold samples and wirelessly sending the digital photographs to a remote location for analysis. The mold testing system includes a vacuum-based mold capturing device and a smartphone application. The vacuum-based mold capturing device features a vacuum pump, a high-resolution/magnification camera, and a wireless communication module. The wireless communication module transmits the captured images wirelessly to the smartphone application, and the smartphone application transmits the received images to a mold specialist for testing, analysis and expert advice. The mold sample testing system eliminates the need to physically submit the mold samples to a testing laboratory, and provides a quicker turnaround time for receiving the results of the mold analysis.
