ScentAir Scent Machines Help Recreate Prehistoric Age


CHARLOTTE, NC - On June 11, The Children's Museum of Indianapolis will open one of the largest displays of real juvenile and family dinosaur fossils in the United States using scent systems from ScentAir Technologies. The systems, using scents like rainforest, earth, magnolia and evergreen, will help recreate many of the prehistoric displays.

"People can take a step back in time using all of the senses such as sight, sound, touch and now - for the first time - scent," says Cathleen Donnelly, exhibit developer for Dinosphere. "We asked ScentAir to develop these scents specifically for this gallery to recreate the smells of the Cretaceous Period."

Upon entering the gallery, the atmosphere that is created by ScentAir systems evokes the prehistoric age. As people walk by displays, a motion sensor emits a brief scent creating a controllable scent zone that matches each exhibit. There are also educational interactive exhibits where children can smell the flower-like pods to identify various prehistoric scents of that time.

"This adds a new scent dimension to interactive displays for museums, and entertainment," says a ScentAir spokesperson. "ScentAir is used not only in museum settings but also by many leading brand marketers and retailers."
