Your iPhone Will Soon Detect Bad Breath

Posted by samzenpus on from the smell-bad dept.

Julie188 writes "A tiny San Francisco startup, Adamant Technologies, is trying to give your iPhone a sense of smell and taste.. The company has created a computer chip that works with a bunch of tiny sensors to digitize these senses. The first app planned is a consumer device that plugs into an iPhone and detects bad breath."

    Well they will plan to make the Brethalyzer app but instead they retire as billionaires from the $3 "rate my fart, bro" app and lose interest.

    We have warned you in the past about being sensible, using correct sentences and failing to indulge in logical fallacies.

    Please don't let it happen again.

    Or else we shall be forced to indulge in an automobile analogy at your expense.

    "My nose has been detecting bad breath for the last 43 three years. Should I file a patent on nasal abilities?"

    No, but you want to try some mouthwash.
