“…This setup allowed us to combine the strengths of lab and field research. So far, only a few attempts have been made to integrate odors into VR using an olfactometer, and these reports focused mostly on VR functionality, namely how smells would enhance subjective “presence” in VR (e.g., Ariyakul & Nakamoto, 2011 ; Bordegoni & Carulli, 2016 ; Carulli et al, 2016 ; Dhokia et al, 2016 ; Howell, Herrera, Moore, & McMahan, 2016 ; Porcherot et al, 2018 ); far fewer studies have applied VR to study the way smells influence our perception and behavior (Discalfani, 2012 ; Li & Bailenson, 2018 ; Quintana, Nolet, Baus, & Bouchard, 2019 ).…”

From sterile labs to rich VR: Immersive multisensory context critical for odors to induce motivated cleaning behavior

Extending traditional research methods for studying the effects of odor on behavior, this study applied virtual reality (VR) to create a real-world, immersive context that was compared with a traditional sterile, non-immersive lab setting. Using precise odor administration with olfactometry, participants were exposed to three odors (cleaning-related pleasant smell, cleaning-unrelated pleasant smell: vanillin, and odorless air). Our aim was to tease apart whether participants' motivation to clean was driven by cleaning associations and/ or odor pleasantness, and how context would accentuate these effects. The results indeed showed that, in VR only, the cleaning-related smell elicited faster and more energetic cleaning behavior on a custom-designed cleaning task, and faster and more voluminous olfactory sampling compared with controls (vanillin, air). These effects were not driven by odor valence, given the general absence of significant differences between the pleasant control odor vanillin and odorless air. In sum, combining rigorous experimental control with high ecological validity, this research shows the context dependency of (congruent) odors affecting motivated behavior in an immersive context only.

“…According to the requirements listed above, we selected the diffusion using a liquid phase because hardware is more accessible and less expensive than the gas phase alternative. Such a liquid phase diffusion can be realized with different technologies [2,12], the easiest to find on the market comes from the technology used in domestic essential oil diffusers: ultrasonic atomizers allowing for a cold diffusion of scented mist. We thus selected this technology, which is both inexpensive as widely available on the market, and easy to use.…”

“…Double vortex rings from two scent projectors can even stimulate the direction of movement of the scented air (Matsukura et al 2013;Yanagida et al 2013). Wearable scent diffuser can also personalise smell stimulation by assembling micropumps to deliver liquid odourants for atomisation by SAW (surface acoustic wave) device and vaporise to air surrounding the wearer (Ariyakul and Nakamoto 2014;Hashimoto and Nakamoto 2015).…”

Towards disappearing user interfaces for ubiquitous computing: human enhancement from sixth sense to super senses

The enhancement of human senses electronically is possible when pervasive computers interact unnoticeably with humans in ubiquitous computing. The design of computer user interfaces towards ''disappearing'' forces the interaction with humans using a content rather than a menu driven approach, thus the emerging requirement for huge number of non-technical users interfacing intuitively with billions of computers in the Internet of Things is met. Learning to use particular applications in ubiquitous computing is either too slow or sometimes impossible so the design of user interfaces must be naturally enough to facilitate intuitive human behaviours. Although humans from different racial, cultural and ethnic backgrounds own the same physiological sensory system, the perception to the same stimuli outside the human bodies can be different. A novel taxonomy for disappearing user interfaces (DUIs) to stimulate human senses and to capture human responses is proposed. Furthermore, applications of DUIs are reviewed. DUIs with sensor and data fusion to simulate the sixth sense is explored. Enhancement of human senses through DUIs and context awareness is discussed as the groundwork enabling smarter wearable devices for interfacing with human emotional memories.
