Greetings to all...

 

I know that some museums use "aroma stations" to engage visitors' sense
of smell in exhibits.  Does anyone have any suggestions about specific
firms or designers that create these types of interactives?  Is there a
technical term for these types of exhibits?  I've tried to search the
web under olfactory emitters and I get a number of hits, but nothing
that looks like it would be used in a museum.  I'll spare you all the
details, but I have some "unusual" nineteenth-century odors I'd like to
bring to our visitors in an upcoming exhibit.  

 

Thank you all in advance for your help.

 

Regards,
