Nose Gym: An Interactive Smell Training Solution

What is it about?

Many people don't pay much attention to their sense of smell, but it's actually very important. Around 22% of adults in Europe and the USA have some kind of problem with their sense of smell, and this number is even higher for older people. This can really affect their quality of life. Smell training can help, and it's done by sniffing different scents like essential oils. Now, there's a new way to do smell training that uses digital technology. At this CHI Conference Interactivity paper, we present our novel digital smell training solution, which is part of a project called I-smell, which aims to promote the importance of caring for our sense of smell.
