Smell-O-Vision is REAL

[ColinLTT]

Does VR just not have enough realism for you? Do you need MORE senses interacted with? Well, the Cilia might be just the right tool for that.

Time for fart jokes. Virtual fart jokes!

[SuperExpertBacon]

I think they should have used vivecraft + the smellivion forge mod

[Shreyas1]

This may be annoying for pets lol

[samcool55]

Tbh I think this can take off for commercial use. Like those VR playgrounds that are appearing everywhere where you can go and play VR for like half an hour.

We certainly could have, but I thought it was more visual to have linus react to it on the big screen and actually see it work in both VR and outside of VR.

This is genius. Imagine playing DOOM and getting hit by sulphur and burning smell when fighting in hell

[Wheresmehammer]

Cooking in Skyrim will soon be rather amazing.

This may not be for everyone though. If the smell is strong enough, it may make people throw up, and that would be far from an enjoyable experience

There was something like that a while back, but you have to wear it directly on your nose and it came with some South Park Game.

I saw they had all the 3d printing files and how to make it public, are there any documentation on the internals? Would be a fun project!

Im not sure if there's bespoke documentation, but I can assure you that the Cilia dev team would be happy to help you get up and running if you have any questions - its about getting the hardware out there at this point

Next step, bring the Tastotron 5001 and a compatible monitor to life.

To make it more immersive and directionally accurate they could probably create a version with mountable containers, for example in 4 corners of the room, and have the containers move directions(some servos and pan tilt mounting) to cover angles a stationary container couldn't. This would make it more complex and expensive but awesome. And way more plausible than a moving room

this is huge, they should've put this in the video

[eeeee1]

I need to smell my nether fortress right now.

[Luscious]

Imagine this + VR + the original Far Cry. Ocean smell, jungle smell, volcano fumes, gas fumes from the jeep. gunpowder smell from the ammo/explosions, blood smell when you knife them LOL.

 

BTW: You can buy the aroma shooter today. They have it at your local stable - tell them you want the farting horse. Just keep it away from any open flames #bigboygotgas

[Trik'Stari]

I need this for Skyrim.

 

 

Spoiler

Linus makes a GOOP joke?

 

 

[WhitetailAni]

DOh no...

What about those awful smells?

 

Darn you busted Chrome or I would have been the first comment.

[Chiyawa]

Wait... Seriously?

 

Wow, I mean, this is getting more and more dangerous. You won't notice your house was on fire when playing VR games now.

[Lord Vile]

Pretty sure Spy Kids 4D came out like a decade ago at this point...

[Egg-Roll]

This exist for those who don't want to spend/waste $200, may not be a game but going to one will quickly tell you if you should buy one.
