Alexa who farted?

Amazon alexa has 8 built in microphones to detect the direction of a sound source. Though it is currently set up to record only when it hears its name this could easily be modified. Alexa fart detector could easily identify what quadrant of your room the far occured so you can finally blame the right parties.

Alexa, who farted, is better, less invasive. [sophocles, Aug 06 2017]

       Why not train Alexa to recognise the distinctive chemical profile of each individual's farts?

       "HAL, who's farted ?"

       <HAL>   

       "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that ... and I've no longer got any enthusiasm or confidence in the emission ... "

       Add a smell sensor and it could detect your diet & recommend products to fit in a better nutritional profile, just like the google toilet (linked)
