AB Out of all the components of a mobile robot, its sensorial system is undoubtedly among the most criticalones when operating in real environments. Until now, these sensorial systems mostly relied on rangesensors (laser scanner, sonar, active triangulation) and cameras. While electronic noses have barelybeen employed, they can provide a complementary sensory information, vital for some applications, aswith humans. This chapter analyzes the motivation of providing a robot with gas-sensing capabilitiesand also reviews some of the hurdles that are preventing smell from achieving the importance of othersensing modalities in robotics. The achievements made so far are reviewed to illustrate the current statuson the three main fields within robotics olfaction: the classification of volatile substances, the spatialestimation of the gas dispersion from sparse measurements, and the localization of the gas source withina known environment.
