Low-cost, multiplexed, and automated assays are needed to make omic technologies more broadly accessible in clinical, research, and commercial settings. We present Hypercoding, a scalable technology for detection and quantitation of multi-omic targets. Drawing from data reliability methods in the telecommunications field, Hypercoding uses fluorescent signals from hybridization with an error-correcting code to enable detection of high-plexity targets from biological samples, such as human DNA. In the presence of the target, a linear DNA construct is circularized, immobilized, and amplified to enable single-molecule detection of a target via rapid readout cycles within a 96-well plate. We demonstrate capability for >10,000 code plexity and accurate (98.7%) genotyping of 209 pharmacogenomic variants. Furthermore, we show computation of copy number variation with whole chromosome and sub-gene resolution, as well as quantitation of target abundance down to 10 fM sensitivity with a dynamic range of up to 10 logs.
