The main invention is in the electronic nose. The kid just did the plumbing of connecting it to some ML library.

Of course, the electronic nose itself is a work of plumbing too, where some existing gas sensors are put on a pcb.

In short, nothing seems really new here, but the application is interesting. I guess it's always interesting when people start looking for correlations in data and get some positive results, so from that point of view it is noteworthy.
