Smartphone electronic nose
21 century does not cease to amaze mankind with discoveries in the field of electronics, biology and physics. This time it's time to congratulate the Germans, who came up with and created an electronic nose for smartphones. Representatives of the German research center emphasized the miniaturization of the device, which integrates seamlessly into smartphones. The microscopic sensor detects odors and gives the result to the user.

Physicist Martin Sommer, under whose leadership the laboratory operates, positions the device as a device for home safety. Since the scientists originally planned to release a sensor that detects the smell of smoke or gas. But later it was discovered that the device is capable of more.
Not all objects smell the same in different environmental conditions. Flowers have very different smells in sunny and rainy weather, for example.
