NASA wants to turn the iPhone into a poison warning tool

The US space agency has created an electronic sensor for the iPhone that turns the smartphone into a portable chemical analyzer.

NASA has proven that a single-size stamp sensor chip can be attached to the iPhone and used software, the phone's operating system detects toxic chemicals in the air. Gases such as ammonia, chlorine gas and methane, at low concentrations.

The air entering the sensor will be handled by a 16-nanometer silicon chip. Once analyzed, data will be transferred to your phone or computer via Wi-Fi or other telecommunications networks.

With the rapid development of digital technology, the cell phone of the individual can completely become a micro lab. On the picture is the NASA chemical sensor.


If mounted on a mobile phone, this sensor can provide early warning of chemical accidents or chemical terrorist attacks when sending timely information to the authorities. function.

This utility is the work of Jing Li, a female physics scientist at NASA's Radio Research Center in California. She developed it as part of the national security program on the mobile network.

This program is intended to install additional security devices on each phone in the user's hands.
