Adding an Olfactory Dimension To Games

cylonlover writes "California-based company Scent Sciences is looking to bring an olfactory dimension to computer games with its ScentScape personal digital scent delivery system. The ScentScape Gaming Suite system consists of a unit that plugs into a PC or gaming console via USB and generates smells using scent cartridges. As well as aiming for the development of ScentScape-capable games from games developers, the system also allows gamers to add scents to existing games and share these with other ScentScape system users."

No its not. Its in action and has been in Disney and other high end theme parks, and guess what - it works when done correctly. The process completely adds a tremendous dimension influence, and scent is most link to memory recall... games take on added emotion and connection as I would imagine, just as so in many rides and attractions....
