Will your mobile phone be able to detect and transfer smell to other mobiles? A research has been carried out in search for technologies that can bring these phones to our door steps. Abstract Smart devices have greatly transformed our lives; smart devices have affected the way we think, interact, and process information. As technology continues to grow, we expect more transformation caused by improved technologies. Videos, Images, sounds etc. are exchanged easily from one end of a smart device to a receiving end. However, the transfer of smell (Odour components) is still a major challenge in making devices “really smart”. This research seeks to lay a framework for the identification of odour component and the transfer of odour formulas among smart devices. The research proves that, with an assumption that if odour formulas can be transferred, the corresponding odour can be recreated on destination device using these formulas.
