It is common to see dogs helping the police sniff out drugs and other illegal materials. In recent years, a new kind of detection dog has been introduced—electronic storage detection dogs. These dogs are trained to recognize the smell of electronic storage devices like smartphones, hard drives, or flash drives. In September 2023, Taiwan started using its first electronic storage detection dog to help the police find such devices. The dog was named Wafer as a nod to Taiwan’s semiconductor industry.
