Scientists have created an amazing device called a Smellicopter, which can sniff and navigate the chemicals in the air to detect the survivors of disasters like gas leaks, explosions, etc. But most sensors made by humans are not sensitive or fast. In this direction, scientists have created Smellicopter. Smellicopter is a device that works to identify the smell. It is an autonomous drone that uses a kite antenna to navigate by smell. Researchers have also attached two plastic wings to the drone, to help it fly continuously in the air. Another feature of this is that it is capable of reaching the goal by avoiding obstacles. Let's know more about Smellicopter.
