Smells Won’t Stink Up Consoles For Decades
Published on October 12, 2025
Sight, sound and smell. Gaming has the first two covered — and maybe soon the third as well. Then again, maybe not.
In the UK, the Ministry of Defense is part-funding a project สล็อต that releases foul smells during training vids so soldiers can learn to smell trouble. According to the MailOnline, this tech “is expected to be taken up by manufacturers of top-selling consoles – such as the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3”.
According to Professor Bob Stone, research director at Birmingham University’s Human Factors Integration Defence Technology Centre, the smell tech won’t be hitting consoles anytime soon. Here’s why: “With current levels of technology and, bearing in mind the complexity of how smell is linked to memory, spacial awareness and even emotion, I can’t see how it’s going to be used,” says Professor Stone. “We’re looking at 20 to 30 years before this technology works.”
He adds, “As long as you’ve got something that needs to be physically wafted at the human face you’ll u31 have delivery problems because it’s going to be noisy, clunky and you’ll not be able to remove the smell.” That stinks.

The payout process is generally smooth and reliable, though occasionally it takes longer than expected. Overall, I feel confident that my winnings are safe and will be credited properly. Sometimes I wish there were more ways to earn rewards through loyalty programs or frequent player bonuses. Adding seasonal events or special challenges could enhance the excitement even further.
