The sweet smell of success

Next time you are playing a computer game imagine that not only can you see and hear the action but smell it as well! Burning rubber from car chases of the whiff of hot steamy jungles where you are fighting a war. Two professors from Birmingham University have developed technology that delivers “smell effects.” The Sunday Times has the story here http://tinyurl.com/ckbk2a. The idea of adding smell to TV, “smelly vision” is a great source of material for comedians, so do you think it would add to computer games? With the right game you could literally wake up and smell the coffee.
