For instance, distinguishing among floral perfumes with similar notes or detecting the faint odor of fruit approaching spoilage remains challenging for current systems. This gap has driven demand for next-generation e-nose technologies with greater precision, sensitivity, and adaptability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A research team has developed a \u201cnext-generation AI electronic nose\u201d capable of distinguishing scents like the human olfactory system does and analyzing them using artificial intelligence.
