When we communicate online,words sometimes just aren’t enough,says City University London Professor Adrian David Cheok.
Now,he has a solution: researchers at his Mixed Reality Lab are coming up with ways to say words with a smell — developing cell phone apps and plug-ins that give off smells like flowers and food.
“Smell is a very powerful- sense. It can cause an emotion or memory directly 一 before we logically think about it,” Cheok tells the Columbia Broadcasting System.
The lab has already created technology able to send the smell of flowers to a loved one through texting — as long as the person has a little digital machine plugged into the (耳機塞孔) of his smart phone.
The first application of this technology was the Hana Yakiniku plug-in released in Japan in 2013. It became available internationally on Amazon in February. The video marketing the Hana Yakiniku attachment presents funny digital smell solutions to common problems: a poor college student,for example,can now eat dinner with his iPhone and enjoy the smell of beef he can* t afford while eating rice for lunch. The plug-in attachment is sold at a reasonable price of about thirty-five dollars.
The technology can be used in a range of commercial applications,from diet programs,advertising and health care,to recipes and personal communications.
“You can send someone an online message with the smell of a flower,” Cheok says. “For our everyday communication,we want to be able to have a much wider range of experiences being communicated. Not just sending data or information,we want to share our experiences. ”
9. What is the purpose of Cheok's technology?
A. To improve our sense of smell.
B. To help us have a better memory.
C. To help us enjoy better communication.
D. To encourage us to use more words online.
10. The Hana Yakiniku plug-in was based on the design by.
A. a Japanese company
B. the Amazon company
C. the Mixed Reality Lab
D. the Columbia Broadcasting System
11. According to the text,Cheok's technology.
A. will have many different uses
B. will be on the market very soon
C. is too expensive for most people
D. is possibly harmful to earphone jacks
12. What does Cheok mainly tell us in the last paragraph?
A. The influence of personal experiences.
B. The importance of communication.
C. The development of smart phones.
D. The advantages of his invention.
