Researchers have created a robot that can detect smells 10,000 times better than humans and computers. They used the antenna of a locust and kept it ‘alive’ to capture a large variety of smells detected and undetected by humans. Such robots could one day be used to detect drugs and explosives, and could theoretically replace canines in police search operations.
