Olfactory Interfaces for Smell Testing and Training: Innovations from an HCI Perspective

It is a great pleasure to welcome Dr. Marianna Obrist, University College London, United Kingdom, at the DOS 2024 7th World Congress this December in Tokyo.

Topic: Olfactory Interfaces for Smell Testing and Training: Innovations from an HCI Perspective.

Presentation Summary

The sense of smell, while fundamental to our sensory experiences, has often been underutilized in digital technologies. This talk explores the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and digital olfaction, highlighting recent advancements in olfactory interfaces. These innovations are transforming smell testing and training in both professional healthcare settings and private home environments.

By incorporating advanced sensory technologies into digital platforms, HCI research is paving the way for richer multisensory interactions. The talk will showcase the latest developments in olfactory interfaces and discuss their potential to enhance digital health and wellbeing.
