This one is particularly intriguing since it has the ability to use your own oils/scents... sometimes there are somewhat ambiguous scents that people associate with different things. I think the coolest part is that you might have the ability to tailor the scents to your own perceptions... if further development is done right, one could even get higher volume "carrier" scents, and a wide variety of "component" scents that can be mixed even better for more scent variations... Very intriguing...

LTT, Thank you for talking about this and the concept of smell-resolution and latency. I will share this video with my students at IU. We have a course on immersive innovation in media arts & science. Haptic displays are relevant finally in the Information Age and students are excited to contribute. When I do research using systems like the Cilia (I ordered one, thx) I refer to them as "Environmental Feedback Devices" or EFDs. Most of my work has been focused on the control system components around EFDs for VR and AR spatial experiences. Lots of work to do in haptics if you compare it to media innovations in sight and sound experiences.

[@JHarris533]

It will be interesting to see in the future if "smell design" becomes as important a role to Media as "sound design".

[@manarallego3745]

It already is a huge part of marketing. There's been scent design for over decade e. g. in shopping malls. It makes a lot of sense, since scent directly goes to the limbic system, you can't even control the emotions and memories it invokes. I'd say, a right to not be manipulated through scent is quite urgent.

[@northdkt7088]

Then the game, movie and other development time period would also keep increasing imo...currently for example PS5 controller has some insane haptics which the developers have to configure for best experience...imagine configurung smell on top of that...but it would be dope ngl xD

I can just do a homebrew version of this. Just get some friends together when playing VR and have them light different candles and spray air freshener while playing games. Like when you get to the distillery in Half-Life Alyx, just have them splash you with rubbing alcohol to really immerse you.

[@richardrussell7082]

There was an episode of Tomorrow's World, years ago. In it they had a vial of super concentrated orange scent from a pharmaceutical company, it came with security guards and everything. The presenter asked the audience members to raise their hand as and when they smelt the aroma, to 'map out' how a smell can spread through air. They opened the vial and within a few moments the centre of the front row began to raise their hands and slowly but surely it spread out in a rough wave pattern until almost everyone had smelt it. Then the presenter revealed that it was totally unscented water and was actually a demonstration of the power of suggestion.

[@HunterRodrigez]

The amount of sewer levels in video games will always stop me from getting something like that...

[@ninelaivz4334]

Tech companies were looking at this about 12 years ago but then nothing happened. I can't believe it, finally it's here. The original idea I think was either for games or to send food or perfume smells "over" the internet.

[@junz00]

Think of game developers having the option to work with these guys and when they drop a new game they also drop a pack of scents for that kit that match the scents of their game environments. That would simplify things and make it easier to work for each game. Sweeeeeeet

[@Raleford]

And then the online community would list all kinds of silly substitutes for different experiences, just like silly texture packs/skin mods. "Use cotton candy in the blood slot"

I love how open source this looks and how you can just use scents you can find locally. I might build my own version with an Arduino and some mini aquarium fans.

The early prototypes actually did run off an Arduino Uno instead of the custom PIC18 based board it currently runs on so you probably could. We have the 3D models and laser cut files on the site and sell the board separately.
