OLFA
Voyages Olfactifs

With this project I wanted people to relive memories from their travels and share them. I created a travel smell captor, an app and a smell diffuser to re-create the smells at home.

OLFA could be used in many different ways :
Fighting Alzheimer, Shazaming a perfume, keeping and protecting smells around us that may disappear with global warming, finding out if a condiment is still edible or even smell your breath to detect sickness

• the diffuser diffuse the smell you chose on the app in the air at home for a duration of  1 second.
• the sensor can be used everywhere and sends the data extracted from the smell to the app on your smartphone.

I wanted to keep only the areas of contact between the chair and the body, symbolized by 2 foam cushions. The EKI armchair consists of a back and a seat, recessed in a thick 180cm brushed metal plate, using a metal rode. The points of contact between the chair and the body symbolized by the 2 cushions are highlighted thanks to the vacuum created by the lightening of the structure.

THE APP

I also created a little app for the user's smartphone. You can use it to download the smells from the captor, name them and link them to a picture. They are organised by location. It is also linked to the diffusor : you just press the smell to re-create it !

SCENARIO

---

​To simplify the capsule change, there are only 10 numbers organized in 4 colours. The application notifies you when the capsule is almost empty and you need to change it.

You can also see all the different pieces of the OLFA package :
​-the scent diffuser
-the scent sensor
-the charger
-one cartridge
-the smartphone (where you download the app that links everything)
