Abstract

Functionality of sensors and actuators in smart portable devices plays an important role in corresponding to five senses of human, enhancing user convenience, and enriching user experience. The human sense of small (olfaction) is perhaps the most interesting and yet is understood the least. A human interface for olfaction is composed of an odor sensing and olfactory display system. There is considerable need for a system that could mimic the olfaction and to use for various applications as a system based on sensing and actuating. In this presentation, we introduce an odor sensing system for healthcare monitoring of diabetes using human exhaled breath and an olfactory display which display odors to human being applicable to multimedia as an actuating activity for olfaction.
