N2  - This paper deals with the design of an electronic device aimed at the detection and characterization of volatile chemical substances, that is, an electronic nose (e-nose). We pursue the development of a versatile, multi-purpose e-nose that can be employed for a wide variety of applications, which requires the integration of heterogeneous sensing technologies and a mechanism to be customized for different requirements. To this end, we contribute with a fully-configurable and decentralized e-nose architecture based on self-contained and intelligent sensor-boards (i.e. modules). This design not only allows for the integration of heterogeneous gas-sensor technologies, but also of other electronic components, such as a GPS or Bluetooth. We describe an implementation of a fully operative prototype, as illustrative example of its potential for sensor networks, mobile robotics and wearable technologies.
