 This is a dog who has been trained to detect cancer cells by sniffing biological samples of urine, sweat or breath. Cancer growth emanates volatiles from cancer cells which can be found, for example, in urine, sweat or breath. Our noses aren't sophisticated enough to detect these volatiles, however dogs have superhuman sense of smell so they can. At the moment the dog can express yes or no. For example, if he sits in front of the stand it means that he has found some cancer cells in the sample. If he moves away from the stand it means that he hasn't found anything in the sample. However we are developing a cane and interface that will allow the dog to express more nuances in his detection. Well the work that the OU has done in collaboration with medical detections is massively important. It allows our dogs to communicate with their client or handler a lot more effectively. The Open University is the first academic institution to have created a research program in Animal Computer Interaction. This is our dedicated Animal Computer Interaction Lab where we prototype all our technologies. The program aims to understand the relation between animals and technology, to design technologies that can support animals in different ways and to inform animal-centered research approaches to developing technology intended for them. I'm thrilled with the progress that we are making so far but there is so much more to be done. If we expect dogs to help us out then it is only fair that we give them the technology to support them.
