  • Abstract
    The aim of our paper is to give the consumers of the virtual world a truly virtual experience by adding one more dimension - the sense of smell. We have accomplished this by means of a special electromechanical device specifically designed by us for this purpose. According to the type of application the ESTER is associated with, it will dispense the scent required by the application at the right time.
