Now, imagine doing the same from the perfume and cologne counter.
AI could make that happen in the not-too-distant future after a breakthrough in ‘Scent Teleportation.’
Scent teleportation uses sensors to collect and analyze a scent with a Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS).
Osmo has previously performed scent teleportation, but only with humans helping the process at every step.
That’s no longer necessary.
The video demonstration by Osmo CEO Alex Wiltschko below shows how it works.
Smells like AI
“Well, we actually did it.
Holy moly, Im still processing the magnitude of what weve done.
It makes me smile.”
Scent teleportation isn’t Osmo’s only AI project.
The company has also used AI to design entirely new scents, offering them to the fragrance industry.
Imagine putting on a VR helmet and not only seeing the virtual environment but smelling it, too.
But you could certainly enhance a romantic message with a picture of a flower the recipient can actually smell.
