Study on Odor Source Localization Method Based on Bionic Olfaction

Abstract:

This paper proposes an odor source localization method based on bionic olfaction. The special nasal cavity and turnable head make mammalian have excellent odor source localization ability. According to this principle, a turnable bionic odor sensing device is proposed by this paper for odor source localization system. This sensing device can rotate freely within the range level 360°, and the detection directions of its sensing channels are different. This also proposes a pattern recognition algorithm based on K-L transform to analyze the data collected by odor sensing device, and the features of odor source are extracted correctly. Experimental results for odor source localization demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.
