This headset gives your nose a VR experience too - Yanko Design

I'll give the guys at Feelreal a laissez passer because the VR market is just growing, so nosotros may have to look a decent amount of time before multisensory VR headsets don't look like someone glued a toaster to your face up. Its beefy design aside, the Feelreal is an zipper that adds an olfactory chemical element to your VR feel. Uniform with the Oculus Rift, Get, HTC Vive, Samsung Galaxy VR, and the Playstation VR, the Feelreal snaps to the bottom of the headset, sitting correct in front of the nose. It and so releases smells that complement the media you're watching by simulating, stimulating, or relaxing.

Compatible with a diverseness of games, movies, and multimedia content on platforms like YouTube VR, the Feelreal tin generate a variety of aromas and smells, making y'all feel like you lot're in the moment, whether it's a wood, a race-rails, or a battlefield. The Feelreal comes with a series of 9 aroma-vials that combine to create equally many as 255 different types of distinct smells, from flowers and petrichor, to food, to grease or gunpowder. The Feelreal goes the extra mile by providing a tactile experience too! It comes with its own water-spray, microheater (to simulate heat) and fan (to simulate wind), calculation dissimilar layers to your audiovisual VR feel.

Feelreal'due south addition to VR opens up a world of opportunities. Designed not just for games and movies, the Feelreal tin also exist used for therapy/meditation or even in the culinary industry. The thought is definitely a novel ane (and makes VR a truly multisensorial feel, every bit it should exist), although I personally have issues with wearing a headset that practically feels like a brick tied to the front of my face… but that'south just considering the concept and the backing applied science is so nascent…
