this, ahem, new breed of phone research:

….NTT Communications has revealed a new phone which will add smell to the already substantial audio and visual experience on your handset. The new smelly cell phone will allow people to smell fragrances as well as other smells sent through their mobile phones.
NTT Communications stated that the smelly phone will go into testing shortly.

They stated that the new technology has been in the works since 2004. It is called kaori tsushin. They stated originally that the technology was for indoor environments, to use aroma advertising to have digital signs send out smells ….MORE….

Can’t imagine multitudes of that in a classroom now, can you?

Here are more resources about the NTT Smelly phone:

• Japanese carrier to test smell-o-vision phone kit
• NTT Goes From Cell Phone To Smell Phone
• Smelly phone making waves in Japan

Hope the above is useful.

ThankYouVeryMuch!
