OVR Tech received 1 granted patent in the VR & AR category.
The patent covers a scent-generating device designed for VR and AR headsets. The technology uses piezoelectric atomizers to deliver programmable olfactory stimuli that synchronize with interactions in virtual environments.
The VR & AR patent describes a scent delivery system that attaches to virtual reality and augmented reality headsets to add smell as a sensory dimension. The device uses piezoelectric elements with adjustable amplitude control to regulate scent intensity with precision, allowing for subtle or strong olfactory cues depending on what's happening in the virtual world. A programmable interface connects the Hardware to game engines, enabling developers to trigger specific scents or blend multiple aromas in real-time as users interact with virtual objects and environments. The system employs detachable scent modules with individual piezoelectric elements for each scent vessel, making it possible to swap out or refill individual fragrances without replacing the entire unit.
