Peres, the electronic "E-nose," is a gadget up for crowdfunding on IndieGoGo. The device samples air around meat by detecting the concentration of volatile organic compounds and transmits the data to a smartphone or tablet for calculation. Users can view results for a decision on whether to eat it or not. The information can also be posted to social networks.
