Quantum physics explanation for smell gains traction

I really do not need quantum physics to explain that terrible smell coming from the White House.

A story about an electronic nose and there’s the quote “and they’re slowly unpicking it”. Have you no shame?

The gas company’s already have ‘sniffers’, so what makes this different?

an "electronic nose" superior to any chemical sensor could be devised

If they can devise that, then it would only be a matter of time before they can reverse the process and be able to create the smells electronically.

Smell-a-vision, anyone? Smell-a-web, anyone?

I'm waiting for touch-a-vision.

Thanks for posting this! There’s a terrific book about Luca Turin - “The Emperor of Scent”. I’ve been following this story for a few years now. His rivals won the Nobel prize for their opposing theory of scent. I never bought it. Looks like Turin is finally gaining the respect he deserves.
