Nose Computer Interface for Contraband Identification

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and neurotechnology company Canaery have developed an advanced nose-computer interface (NCI) capable of enhancing the ability of scent-detection animals to simultaneously identify contraband such as explosives and narcotics, as well as biomarkers for neurological and infectious diseases.

The work with Canaery involves the design and nanofabrication of micro-electrocorticography arrays and high-density interconnects for polymer bioelectronic devices. A key goal is the development of a 767-channel microelectrode array for implantation in rodents, capable of digitizing olfactory signals from the brain.
