Tokyo, The Digital Olfaction Society (DOS) announces a global initiative for 2025, aiming to digitize and transmit scents from various locations around the world for reproduction in Tokyo. This project intends to capture a wide range of fragrances representing the cultural diversity of the globe, leading to a significant development in Tokyo.
Invitation for Worldwide Participation
DOS invites teams from around the world to participate in this initiative. Whether located in major cities such as Berlin, New York, Dubai, or any place with a distinctive aroma, contributions are essential. The task involves digitizing a scent, sound, or image that represents the cultural essence of a location.
A team in Tokyo will work to accurately recreate these digital signatures, aiming to develop a device that accurately reflects each aroma’s character. The reveal of this technology in 2025 is anticipated to be a landmark in the advancement of olfactory digitization.
Marvin Edeas, founder of DOS and chairman of the Scientific Board, states: “The goal is to advance this concept, making it possible to transform any scent source into digital media for everyday use. The objective is to develop devices that can record smells, convert them into digital data, and transmit and reproduce them as desired.” This statement highlights the project’s aim to integrate olfactory experiences seamlessly into digital mediums.
