3D Printed Nose Can Sniff Out COVID Infections in 80 Seconds

Scientists have developed a 3-D printed nose that can sniff out COVID in about 80 seconds.

Professor Noam Sobel, project leader, says “the e-nose generates a pattern in every odor so it characterizes the smell of COVID-19.”

Actually, a couple years ago, Simon Bootsma did a TED Talk  about electronic noses that can sniff out diseases where we really dives into the information.
