The electronic nose

Caption

The electronic nose contains 16 different gas-sensitive materials (small circles in the center) that each react to the gas molecules presented to it (left). The device records the reactions of each material and, using a machine learning model, learns which set of reactions are associated with a specific food or scent (right).
