According to the reports,
Aromajoin has developed a scent distributor that can be worn around the neck and add up to six distinct scents to your films.
The Mechanism
Its configurable
Aromaplayer and AromaShooter technology allow you to use it with any YouTube or personal library video. You can add smells that are timed with the video that is now playing using the color-coded interface. The fragrance, timing, and duration can all be programmed, and you may even combine different smells to trigger at the same time.
You can replace the little cartridges that hold the scents. The technology was initially applied to high-end digital signage applications, where a dispenser could spray odours in your direction from up to six feet away. This time, the company displayed tools for anyone to build own content and aromatic experiences at the CES 2023 in Las Vegas.
The device that may be worn around the neck is more focused, so it cannot be seen from more than a foot away. Users of the Aromashooter can direct the fragrances in whatever direction they want.

What It Does
Aromajoin will first draw in ambient air to add the scent to, which will then travel through the cartridge. Its nozzles are designed to transport the smell to the user's nose.
The device supports Bluetooth connections to desktops, cellphones, and VR headsets. Under usual use, the battery life can last for two days.
When it will be published and how much it will cost are still unknown. The gadget appears intriguing, though, and might raise the bar for watching videos.
Incorporating Smell into Technology
Since it has always been challenging to depict a smell, we can finally "see" what odours are like. Although this technology is spreading, it's still viewed as gimmicky, so it's unclear how people and the business community will respond to it. For the time being, it's a good method to give our content more storytelling depth.

This gadget can help you because you sometimes find it difficult to describe how something smells to others. Additionally, it works well for transporting you back in time to a specific location or moment when you first noticed a scent. It has been demonstrated that the sense of scent can revive memories.
We might observe a connection between the sense of smell and senses like touch, sight, and hearing in the future. A VR-based system that is more accurate and allows for a more interactive experience can be used to accomplish this. Through the power of VR, we can already feel, touch, and engage with the digital world. It won't be long before we are able to taste and smell this planet as well.
