OVR Tech received 1 granted patent in H1 2026, spanning VR & AR (1).
The patent covers a scent-generating device designed for VR and AR headsets, utilizing piezoelectric atomizers to deliver programmable olfactory stimuli. This technology synchronizes scent output with virtual environment interactions, adding an olfactory dimension to immersive experiences.
In the VR & AR category, 1 patent covers a scent delivery system designed to work with VR and AR headsets. The system relies on piezoelectric atomizers, where variable amplitude control over each element allows for fine-tuned regulation of scent intensity rather than simple on/off triggering. Individual piezoelectric elements are assigned to separate scent vessels within a detachable module, making it possible to swap out scents or scale the number of available options without redesigning the core Hardware. A programmable API ties the whole system together, allowing game engines to call up specific scents or real-time blended combinations in direct response to what is happening inside the virtual environment.
