Q & A – Aroma for Group Presentation

Here are a few questions recieved over the years from people interested in use of our technology for various purposes, including theatrical use of scent and scent-marketing… worth reading. RDN

Is the diffuser capable of “personal” delivery?

The aromaComposer was designed specifically for personal delivery, and excels at it.

More specifically, we want to know whether multiple aromaComposers can be used in a single room by multiple users.

Most certainly Yes!…multiple aromaComposers can be used in a single room by multiple users.

In such a configuration, would the scent from one interfere with the scent from another?

In a tightly packed movie theater with rows of people shoulder to shoulder and knee to back, this would present a challenge. In a video game arcade, or at a specially built bar, or within a room with several point of purchase displays or kiosks, the aromatic separation could be maintained.

Thus, in designing a production system, we would normally need to know:

How close together do you desire to place the users? Are they seated or standing? How are users positioned in relation to each other?

How large is the space… its volume? How many users typically per cubic foot of airspace?

What kind of air conditioning or purification system is usually installed within the desired environment? Could we specify something different?

How often and for what period of time is aroma being directed to the users? Short bursts on occasion or a constant flow?

Are we blending custom synergies for each individual, or projecting a small pre-designed palette to be shared by many, just at different times?

How many component oils are desired?

How do we want to control this unit? Is it interfacing with existing systems? Is it intended to be combined with other sensual media displays? Is the system controlled by simple selection of a predetermined program or does it happen automatically through the guest’s selection via conscious choice, or by biofeedback analyzed by a complex AI device? FYI: We use either a computer or a DVD player here for demonstrations.
