have been working on technologies to support a future digital world called the “metaverse.”</span> <span data-start-time='12917' data-end-time='26708'>Metaverse is a term used to describe a non-physical world in which individuals interact through different kinds of digital technology. </span> <span data-start-time='26708' data-end-time='37854'>People would use virtual reality (VR) glasses and other devices to interact with each other in the metaverse.</span> <span data-start-time='37854' data-end-time='51729'>A company called OVR Technology launched a new wearable device that produces smells, or scents, designed for VR technology. </span> <span data-start-time='51729' data-end-time='63542'>In a video explaining the device, OVR chief Aaron Wisniewski said it is designed to copy the human sense of smell.</span> <span data-start-time='63542' data-end-time='73271'>The device links smells to elements a person can experience in a digital, VR-powered world. </span> <span data-start-time='73271' data-end-time='80146'>For example, smelling a flower would make the device produce a scent for it. </span> <span data-start-time='80146' data-end-time='88271'>Outdoor environments, such as being in the middle of a field, can also be digitally smelled. </span> <span data-start-time='88271' data-end-time='99583'>The device could also produce the smell of tasty foods as a person in the metaverse walks through shops or restaurants.</span> <span data-start-time='99583' data-end-time='109458'>OVR Technology says its device is able to produce thousands of different smell combinations.</span> <span data-start-time='109458' data-end-time='117979'>But, it adds that it is not designed to exactly produce smells found in the real world. </span> <span data-start-time='117979' data-end-time='128667'>Instead, the device aims to offer users “a whole new world of possibilities” in digital scent technology.</span> </p></div><div
