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.
