Discussion Ask HN: Using the TruffleBot to detect bed bugs Is anyone using the TruffleBot electronic nose (or something like it) to detect bed bugs from the VOCs emitted by them?https://projects-raspberry.com/trufflebot-sniffs-out-and-accurately-identifies-specific-chemical-odors/There's a paper that mentions using VOCs to detect bed bugs:https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10048870/I think someone tried to do this in 2011, but it didn't seem to take off. A large market exists, so possibly a profitable venture? I don't have the skills or abilities myself. 2 points tlocke 1 year ago 0 comments
