SubscribeSMELLIT takes another stab at Smell-O-Vision for games and movies
Olf-Action might want to add a "Smell of Blood" cartridge for use with its SMELLIT device that adds aromas to video games and movies

Releasing scents during the projection of a film reportedly predates the introduction of sound. One early attempt at "Smell-O-Vision" involved a wad of cotton soaked in rose oil being placed in front of an electric fan during a newsreel in 1906, but despite such experiments, this is one technology that just hasn't taken off ... although the quest to add an extra olfactory experience to movies and, more recently, video games continues. This latest effort comes from French company Olf-Action which has created SMELLIT - a device designed to bring an aromatic dimension to your video game and movie experiences.
