We utilize a couple of different methods to create outdoor sensory
experiences. (with varying degrees of success)  For smells we use an AromaSys
unit which disperses scent particles in a limited area.  We use this in our
Algonquian Indian village to simulate campfire and cedar smells.  For certain
sound effects (Fishing docks, pirate battles, stormy seas) we use digital
repeaters from Racom.  These allow us to record sound clips from .wav files
to add sound effects to particular sections of the exhibit hall.  I'm real
high on these units.....they're small, low maintenance and versatile.
