Combine the smell of donuts with virtual reality from Baidu VR

Every holiday season, three pounds of fat, weight in the face of God before eating everything is a cloud. Researchers at Stanford's Virtual Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory are studying how to combine the odor of donuts with virtual reality.

"The other day, I almost took a donut-like bubble because the virtual reality experiment convinced me that it was true." In Stanford's virtual human-robot interaction lab, the experimenter wore a virtual reality helmet and saw a wrap. Chocolate donuts are dotted with donuts with rainbow sugar, and they hold a doughnut with the same texture and chocolate smell. Fortunately, he hesitated, but the doughnut's color and scent has been relishing. This reaction was good news for Benjamin Li, a Stanford researcher. He studied the impact of virtual reality on our perception of food and investigated how to apply smell and touch to virtual reality.

Although research on consumer virtual reality has only just begun, the research on the impact of virtual reality on perception has been going on for several years, and academics and companies have been exploring areas that combine virtual reality with odor. Jeremy Bailenson created the virtual human-computer interaction laboratory at Stanford University. He and Li believe that the combination of smell, touch and virtual reality will have many applications in the future.

Imagine a world where salmon has become extinct. Maybe you can use a virtual salmon sushi, the smell of salmon and a hand roll with other real fish flesh, so that people who have never tasted salmon know how to eat salmon sushi. Or maybe you use scent and virtual reality to help you eat a healthy diet so you don't feel like you missed a delicious meal. You may see and smell a juicy cheese burger, but in fact you are eating a vegan patties.

Li said that when it comes to food in virtual reality, “seeing” is not enough to let one person eat something and believe that it is actually another. To prove this, he invited people to do the tests to see what they felt when they were holding donuts in their hands, seeing donuts from virtual reality helmets and smelling chocolate-flavored cotton swabs. After telling the participants what was a fake donut, Li researcher gave them a real donut to eat. This is not just a reward. Researchers also want to find out more about whether people who actually saw, smelled, and held doughnuts are more appetizing than those who have fake doughnuts.

Li is not yet ready to draw conclusions from the data. However, he gave an example: Once people virtually see, smell, and hold donuts, they begin to want to eat. This result is not unexpected, in terms of my own experience in the laboratory. I asked Lee if he used the scent of other foods in combination with virtual reality. He replied that it was feasible. He also used the smell of popcorn and bacon, but he is now more interested in studying the importance of the food in the surrounding environment, such as at a donut shop, not empty. Laboratory. He said he may next plan to build a virtual storefront.

Now in the laboratory can actually experience the sweet smell of donuts, it seems that in the future, sleeping in the room can also experience the taste of various foods, VR technology is really benefiting the food goods.
