Discovering a new use for existing technology is as important as inventing a new one
Dogs can sense odours at concentrations nearly 100 million times lower than humans can. Because of their keen sense of smell, dogs are trained for jobs such as tracking, drug and bomb detection and quarantine work. Sniffer dogs are trained to alert their handlers to the presence of these things by pawing, barking, or in the case of something dangerous, sitting quietly. The trouble is, dogs have to be trained and rewarded. They get tired and they get hungry. They can be temperamental and they get old. And, in time, they have to be replaced.
