“It’s actually scarily realistic”: The evaluation of an olfactory display device for use in VR

Published

proceedings-article

Author(s): Andrew McKelvey , Emilia Sobolewska

Publication date (Print): August 2023

Conference name: 36th International BCS Human-Computer Interaction Conference (BCS HCI 23)

Conference theme: The BCS Human-Computer Interaction Conference 2023 was co-located with the INTERACT 2023 conference, the theme of which was "Design for Equlity and Justice", as increasingly, computer science as a discipline is becoming concerned about issues of justice and equality – from fake news to rights for robots, from the ethics of driverless vehicles to the gamergate controversy. The BCS HCI Conference welcomed submissions on all aspects of human-computer interaction. Topics included: User Experience, usability testing and interaction design; Education and Health; Smart Energy, Smart Transport and the Internet of Things; Interaction Technologies and Applications.

Conference date: 28–29 August 2023

Keywords: Olfaction, Virtual Reality, Odor, Scent, Temple Presence Inventory
