At present, in communications and virtual technologies, smell is either forgotten or improperly stimulated, because non controlled odorants present in the physical space surrounding the user. Nonetheless a controlled presentation of olfactory information can give advantages in various application fields. Therefore two enabling technologies, electronic noses and virtual olfactory displays, are reviewed. Scenarios of usage are discussed together with relevant psycho-physiological issues. End-to-end systems including virtual olfactory interfaces are quantitatively characterised under many respects: smell quality and concentration, dynamics, spatial localisation and information rate. Recent work done by the authors on fidelity is finally reported.
