This Scentsory concept phone by Nokia uses the human senses of sight, sound, touch and even smell for a multi-sensory experience. It has the basic audiovisual features, but Scentsory could also detect, transmit and emit smells, as well as radiate colors, lighting, and temperature from the caller’s environment. It has a sort of electronic nose that works with highly sophisticated sensors. The nose samples the odor of the caller’s environment and transmits this to the recipient electronically. Apparently this works due to distinct genetic patterns that are associated with every odor, and it’s simply a matter of matching electrical harmonics with gene activity. The perception of a smell by electrical stimulation could be technologically induced.

 

The dual-screen mobile has an LED touchpad, speakers, a camera and temperature sensors.
