GameScent aims to push immersion in gaming even further through its ability to release timed context-relevant scents when specific triggers appear in a game, movie, or TV show. By listening to audio cues through either a 3.5mm audio jack or an HDMI cable, GameScent's AI can tell what is going on in whatever media you are playing. Then, the device can emit scents like explosions, rain, burning rubber, forest, and more into the air to further immerse you into your show or game.
The setup was incredibly simple—the audio adapter plugs into your system just like a capture card would: HDMI in from your console or PC, then HDMI out to your monitor or TV. You can also use a 3.5mm jack to connect, but I haven't needed to use it yet. The HDMI connection works perfectly for me.
Upon opening the GameScent, I was surprised by how little actually comes in the box. The GameScent device is made up of three parts: an AI audio adapter, atomizer, and scent cartridges.
The proprietary clean air scent neutralizes the others, so once you're done gaming, the smell of gunfire doesn't linger. Each scent is screwed into a cap and then added into the atomizer slot that corresponds with that scent number.
