Abstract:
An apparatus for dispensing compounds bearing scent in which one or more scent dispensing units contain each one scent bearing compound and is activated mechanically by an electromechanical activator. A user handled device contains a controller, a memory and a communications device. Resident hardware includes a resident channel for communicating with the user handled device and a controlled driver for controlling the scent dispenser mechanically. A wireless peer to peer communications system carries out the communications between the user device and the resident hardware. The user can input parameter for controlling the dispensing unit through a user device interface. A controller in the resident hardware implements a dispenser activation scheme, mechanically expressed by the activator of the scent dispensing unit.

Claim (Index 17):
A method for controlling the dispensation of scent into the ambient atmosphere by a scent dispending unit, said method comprising the steps of:\n a. providing an apparatus for dispensing compounds bearing scent comprising:\n i. at least one scent dispensing unit comprising at least one scent bearing compound and an electromechanical dispenser providing droplets to the ambient atmosphere, \n ii. an user-handled hardware comprising a controller, a memory a communications device and a user device interface through which input user parameters are inputted to an activation profile of said dispenser; \n iii. resident hardware for controlling said at least one scent dispenser; said resident hardware comprising a controller activating said electromechanical dispenser by means of using an activator driver; and \n iv. a wireless peer to peer channel implementing the communications between said user-handled device and said resident hardware; \n b. forming a wireless peer to peer channel by interconnecting said user-handled hardware and resident hardware; c. transmitting activation profile from said user hardware; d. transmitting at least one dispenser activation profile which includes frequency of vibration parameter and an activation duty cycle to said resident hardware; wherein said resident hardware controller is preprogrammed to activate said electromechanical dispenser by means of using said activator driver according to a predetermined activation profile in a vehicle or in a room or cabinet.
