Electronic Nose Technology for Pest & Disease Management Innovations in portable electronic nose and micromachined sensors are revolutionizing the field of health and agriculture by extending the capabilities of diagnosing tools and monitoring devices beyond human senses and perceptions. The adoption of this proposed solution and developed novel electronic nose technology will facilitate the technology transfer of miniaturized, high-efficiency, high performance, and cost-effective smart sensor system, developed as a competitive production system for autonomous early detection of pests and diseases at the application level. In addition, this novel electronic nose can trace indicators of diseases in a fast and cost-effective manner and be adopted to protect the plant health and promote a sustainable practice in agriculture. |
