Add fragrance to games and movies

Asia's largest game trade show Tokyo Game Show 2018 was held in late September. Most of the exhibition booths are related to games, but Kyoto startup Aromajoin exhibited the gadgets they are developing. It is Aroma Shooter 1 which adds fragrance to games and movies.

This is a palm-sized miniature gadget, but it can instantly switch and release six types of fragrances according to the progress of the linked games or movies. When you connecting this to PC or mobile with USB or Bluetooth, it releases multiple scents from the built-in aroma cartridges. The advantage of this is that there are no remaining fragments. Existing aroma diffusers diffuse water and liquid perfume as the mist, so the fragrance drifts throughout the space, and it will never disappear. But Aroma Shooter 1's aroma cartridges are of a solid type and use air to release only aroma molecules like laser beams, so even if the interval of releasing multiple fragrances are short, they are not mixed. They use large numbers of patented technologies for development.
They have released APIs for Windows, iOS, Android, Java, NodeJS, Unity on the website, and developers can develop contents linked with Aroma Shooter 1.
Color variations are white and black, prices are USB version is 192,000yen, Bluetooth version is 240,000yen, and each aroma cartridges are 6,095yen.
Though they may be expensive, but they have not started full-scale mass production yet. If they establish mass production system it will be cheaper.
