What if fart could be a personal ID used for killing criminals? Research indicates that the human body is surrounded by clouds of bacteria from fart, forming a unique microbiome profile for each person.
This project speculates using fart bacteria as an ID to trace and apprehend criminals. Police would collect the microbial cloud at a crime scene and activate a fart-detecting system. When the criminal farts, the system identifies the matching microbial data, triggers the robot inflated with their fart, and choke and kill the criminal with smiley faces :)
