Automatic Activation of HEPA Bio Defense Mode

Is there an ability for the vehicle to activate the Bio Defense mode automatically?

Imagine putting some sort of sensor near the front of the car, or by the air-intake valve. If it detects a certain concentration of noxious odor / pollutant, then it will immediately activate the HEPA filter mode, tuning it back off when it is all clear again. I know how many times that I drove across the path of a skunk (ok, it is not dangerous, just bad smelling) or something and it is already too late when I detect the smell inside to activate recirculate on my current ICE.
