Systems and methods for generating smell data and a database thereof

A non-transitory machine readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon for encoding a method configured for creating and using a database, the database comprising:

• a digital signature of a smell comprising a smell data, wherein the smell data comprises a response signal that is a function of a first data corresponding to a material type generating the response signal and a second data corresponding to a stimulus for generating the response signal;
• a smell condition data associated with the smell data, wherein the smell condition data comprises a condition under which the smell data was generated;
• and
• an index for the smell data;
• wherein the smell data is stored in a data structure on a computer readable storage medium that is associated with a computer executable program code;
• and
• wherein the data structure comprises the smell data arranged in at least one of a computer-readable matrix and a heat-map format;
• wherein the response signal is a measurable response of the generator to the stimulus that is a function of change in electrical properties of resistance or impedance in the generator;
• wherein a sample smell is analyzed by comparing with the smell data in the database using the computer executable program code;
• and
• wherein the method is configured for identifying an unknown smell.
