Smellbased
Smellbased is a descriptive term used to refer to systems, methods, or approaches that rely on olfactory cues or training-inspired olfaction to sense, interpret, or communicate information. It is not a formal discipline with a universal definition, but a label applied across research and industry to indicate a smell-centered design or capability.
In technology, smellbased approaches often employ electronic olfaction or electronic nose sensors that detect volatile compounds
Applications span environmental monitoring (air quality and odor events), food and beverage industries (shelf-life and spoilage
Challenges include the complexity of odor mixtures, sensor drift and cross-sensitivity, calibration needs, and environmental variability.
Note: Smellbased is not a widely standardized term; it is used descriptively to denote odor-focused sensing,
