  • Scientists in Israel have developed a sniffing robot equipped with biological sensors to detect diseases.
  • The robot uses the antennae of a locust to diagnose disease and improve security checks.
  • Locusts smell with their antennae. 
  • The scientists placed the locust's antennae between two electrodes, which can send signals to the robot to identify odors. 
  • With machine learning, the robot can identify different types of smells. Researchers have used this ability of locusts to make a bio-hybrid robot. 
  • Researchers say that with the help of grasshopper's antenna, these robots can be much more effective than electronic sniffers.
