TL;DR

Scientists from CU Boulder and NIST have developed a laser-based breathalyzer powered by AI that can detect COVID-19 in real-time with excellent accuracy. The breathalyzer could revolutionize medical diagnostics and be used to diagnose diverse conditions and disease states. The breathalyzer is non-invasive, fast, and chemical-free, and could be miniaturized for "on-the-go health monitoring." The team is now shifting its focus to a wide range of other diseases, hoping to contribute to the development of a Human Breath Atlas that maps each molecule in the human exhale and correlates them with health outcomes.
