Enhancing VR with Wireless Olfactory Feedback.
Researchers have developed a wireless, skin-interfaced olfactory feedback system that can release various odors with miniaturized odor generators. The technology integrates scents into virtual reality and augmented reality to provide a more immersive user experience. The system can create around 30 different scents, with test participants recognizing these scents with a 93% success rate. The innovation holds significant potential in diverse fields, from 4D movie watching and online education to medical treatment.
