  • Abstract
    Scent or aroma sensing during aromatherapy can be carried out by applying only a single resistance gas sensor (TGS – Taguchi Gas Sensors). This paper considers the efficiency of detection of essential oils by DC resistance and its fluctuations observed in TGS sensors. A detailed study has been conducted for scents emitted by five popular essential oils using three sensor types (TGS 2600, TGS 2602, TGS 823). The research was focused on the practical use in aromatherapy to assure the same intensity of scents which are sprayed by a glass nebulizer. The prepared system for scent emission and control of its intensity was presented as well.
