Electronic Nose

An electronic nose is a device that mimics the human sense of smell by detecting and identifying odors and flavors. It contains sensors sensitive to various chemical compounds in the air, which generate unique signals for different substances. These signals are analyzed using pattern recognition software to identify or distinguish smells. Electronic noses are used in quality control, environmental monitoring, and medical diagnostics, providing rapid, objective, and consistent scent analysis that can complement or replace traditional human sensory evaluations.
