Smell-O-Vision is finally a reality. Mint Foundry has developed a "smelly robot" they call "Olly." This computer peripheral can be customized to puff out fragrance for any Internet action, like a tweet or a Facebook message or a calendar alarm. Olly has a removeable section in the back that can be filled with perfume, essential oil, even alcohol.
The possibilities for perfumistas are tantalizing. Imagine if all your incoming tweets were announced by the sillage of Fracas? Or every time you received a Facebook Like, you smelled a waft of Joy? Or a calendar reminder pops-up to tell you you're late to meet friends for drinks, and it smells like Juniper Sling?

Sounds intriguing, but could get expensive -- a great way, though, to use up samples!
ReplyDeleteHi Olfacta. Yes! It would be a good way to use my huge sample stash.
