Abstract

Understanding how animals navigate their environment requires experimental tools capable of generating plumes and detecting odour fluctuations. We present a unified framework comprising the temporal Odour Delivery Device (tODD) and the detection method with compact passive chemical sensors coupled with WaveNet‑based signal recovery architecture. The delivery system achieves rapid onset latencies and decay times to precisely reproduce naturalistic plumes. In combination with the sensor system, this creates a high‑dynamics framework suitable for use in behaving animals.
