Cell phone could warn of gas leaks

Cellular News reports on a mobile phone able to warn against fire, leakage of methane or other types of toxic gas. The alarm-telephone has been submitted to the Canadian Intellectual Property Office for patent.

"In the future, the mobile phones might also include biosensors, which will warn about the presence of bacteria, viruses, toxins, micro-organisms, radiations, nuclear particles and explosive powder."
