Abstract:
Introduced herein are techniques for producing sensory stimuli that increase the realism of content experienced by a user. Several embodiments pertain to scent delivery system that are able to dispense scented material(s) to the user. A scent delivery system could be a self-contained unit that is attachable to a head-mounted display (HMD) or could be integrated into the HMD itself. The scent delivery system can be used to improve the realism of content (e.g., visual content and audio content) presented to the user. More specifically, the scent delivery system can be configured to dispense one or more scented materials in response to determining a particular scene is being shown. Different scented materials can be dispensed based on characteristics of the content. In some embodiments, the scented material(s) are held in capsules that are housed within the scent delivery system. The capsules may be readily replaceable by the user.

Claim (Index 8):
A method comprising:\n receiving, by a processor, an indication that a sensory functionality of a sensory stimulus apparatus connected to a head-mounted display is enabled; parsing, by the processor, digital content presented by the head-mounted display to discover a keyframe; generating, by the processor, a control signal responsive to a determination that the keyframe has been shown; and transmitting, by the processor, the control signal to a pump of the sensory stimulus apparatus,\n wherein reception of the control signal causes the pump to dispense a liquid from a reservoir of the sensory stimulus apparatus.
