      36th International BCS Human-Computer Interaction Conference (BCS HCI 23)
      The BCS Human-Computer Interaction Conference 2023 was co-located with the INTERACT 2023 conference, the theme of which was "Design for Equlity and Justice", as increasingly, computer science as a discipline is becoming concerned about issues of justice and equality – from fake news to rights for robots, from the ethics of driverless vehicles to the gamergate controversy. The BCS HCI Conference welcomed submissions on all aspects of human-computer interaction. Topics included: User Experience, usability testing and interaction design; Education and Health; Smart Energy, Smart Transport and the Internet of Things; Interaction Technologies and Applications.

            Abstract

            We propose the design of a prototype olfactory display device constructed using off-the-shelf components for use with virtual reality headsets, capable of integrating with industry standard game engine technology. We provide an overview of the device’s construction and functionality with further information regarding how the device release scent stimulus from locational triggers within a virtual environment.
