The 8th Annual Meeting of the Digital Olfaction Society (DOS) will take place on December 5-6, 2024, in Tokyo, Japan, and Online. The DOS meeting is uniquely aimed at digitizing scents, transferring them, and re-creating them in different parts of the world. The two-day event includes one day dedicated to talks and another day for demonstrations. Under the slogan "Olfaction to Digital Olfaction", the congress will explore the latest advances in olfaction science and digital olfaction technologies, highlighting their transformative impact across multiple fields.

The first day of the congress will focus on olfaction science, scent-based diagnosis and treatment innovations, as well as the current state and future of digital olfaction.

The second day of DOS Congress will be dedicated to a showcase of the latest technologies, in a special session of live demonstrations.

DOS Displaying & Demonstrations

A specific session will be dedicated to demonstrations in digital olfaction field. Creators can personally exhibit their devices, products, and solutions on-site. DOS invites all researchers and industries to share their latest research/ innovations during the congress.

The demo chairs may seek additional information during the review period to assess the feasibility of proposed demos, and a panel of judges will select one demonstration for the DOS 2024 Best Demonstration Award.

More about the demonstrations.

 

About the Digital Olfaction Society

The aim of DOS is to create devices which not only can record smells, turn them into digital data but also transmit and restitute them where we like. The objective of DOS is also to gather, share, and complete the knowledge recently established about olfactory digitization. Our perspective is to build up constructive links between leading researchers and industrialists in order to set up appropriate strategies in order to implement Research & Development through practical applications with a high impact on our lifestyle thanks to the potential of olfactory digitization. We want to move from the Stone Age of odorous substance toward a New Age by means of digital fragrance, aroma and smell technologies.
