Abstract
A computer-implemented olfactory data processing system includes a system controller programmed for selecting at least one vial containing a predetermined compound; activating a relay to transmit the predetermined compound in the selected vial to a mixing manifold; and directing at least one mass flow controller (MFC) for processing a sample of the predetermined compound. The mixing manifold can be configured for processing the predetermined compound to produce a target vapor as a test sample for analysis. A sensor is configured for sensing at least one olfactory attribute of the test sample. Also, a data acquisition module operatively associated with the system controller can be programmed for receiving signals communicated from the sensor indicative of sensor data.
