​Smell Revived is the first virtual reality smell training system targeting Post-COVID smell dysfunction. This product is aiming to revolutionize the smell training experience. We strengthen the visual and aural stimulation related to a scent by designing corresponding unique lifelike VR experiences. By bringing Virtual Reality into smell therapy, we make the therapy experience more fun, engaging and effective. Users can visit virtual environments to recall the origin of a scent.
Our VR system also quantifies the progress of recovery by designing unique scent quizzes. Therefore patients can keep an accurate first-hand record of their smell training journey.
A Smell Revived system consists of a training pod, essential oil filling tablets and a virtual reality experience platform. Our training pod is wireless and lightweight. Users could pair their pod to a VR headset or mobile phone via Bluetooth. This pod redefines smell training to be portable, private and convenient.
