ScentSync

ScentSync is a companion app for immersive entertainment that lets creators and venues trigger synchronized scent, airflow, heat, and haptic cues during XR experiences. It targets the messy reality: multisensory hardware is fragmented, and most teams can’t afford custom integrations. The app provides a simple timeline-based “cue track” editor (like subtitles, but for senses) and a runtime player that syncs cues to video/XR timestamps. It supports a limited, realistic set of consumer-accessible devices at launch (e.g., bHaptics vests, Woojer, Philips Hue, select scent diffusers via smart plugs), plus OSC/MIDI for pro rigs. For users, it’s a “press play” layer that makes VR films, escape rooms, and pop-up installations noticeably more memorable without rebuilding content. Monetization is B2B subscriptions for venues/creators and per-show licensing.
