Abstract
An olfactory display is a device that allows users to experience a range of olfactory stimuli. Despite its potential to enhance user experience, challenges remain, including limited odor variety, unwanted odor persistence, constraints on continuous operation, and a restricted range of scent generation. We propose a novel wearable olfactory display that incorporates up to eight odor components to expand the variety of generated scents. Additionally, the device integrates an airflow control system, deodorant filtering, and optimized electrical and mechanical structures. This design aims to provide a more immersive user experience in virtual reality (VR) environments by significantly improving the generation of olfactory stimuli.
