Precision fragrance dispenser apparatus
First Claim
1. A fragrance dispenser for use with synchronized visual images comprising:
- a fragrance dispensing generator for generating a fragrance dispersing signal, said fragrance dispensing generator having a breath sensor for sensing a person'"'"'s breath;
a plurality of fragrance dispensers coupled to said fragrance dispenser generator and each having a fragrance release portion positioned adjacent a person'"'"'s nose for dispensing a fragrance adjacent the nose responsive to a fragrance dispensing signal from said fragrance dispensing generator;
a source of pressurized gas connected to each fragrance dispenser; and
a gas pressure control mechanism connected between said source of pressurized gas and each of said plurality of fragrance dispensers for controlling the dispersion of a plurality of different fragrances responsive to said fragrance dispensing generator, whereby a fragrance is dispensed adjacent a person'"'"'s nose.

Abstract
A fragrance dispenser for use with synchronized visual images may have a breath sensor located adjacent a person'"'"'s nose and actuated by inhaling and exhaling through the nose to produce a fragrance dispensing signal and a plurality of fragrance dispensers each having a fragrance release portion positioned adjacent a person'"'"'s nose for dispensing a fragrance adjacent the nose responsive to a fragrance dispensing signal from the breath sensor. The system has a source or pressurized gas connected to each fragrance dispenser and a gas pressure control mechanism connected between the source of pressurized gas in each of the plurality of fragrance dispensers and connected for receiving the breath sensor fragrance dispensing signals to selectively control the release of a pressurized gas, such are air, to individual fragrance dispensers for selectively dispersing the different fragrances responsive to signals from the breath sensor. The breath sensor may be a flexible thin flat surface having a conductive surface mounted adjacent separated contacts so that the breath moving the flexible surface brings a conductive surface against the contact to produce a signal. Each fragrance dispenser has a housing having an absorbent material therein supporting a fragrance absorbed in the material. Each housing can have long or short capillary tubing or a flexible membrane covering one end thereof and having a slit opening therethrough to allow the egress of a fragrance upon predetermined air pressure entering the housing. The housing can also have a flexible membrane covering the other end for allowing the ingress of air under pressure but blocking the egress of the fragrance therethrough. The source of air can be an oil-free air compressor or a compressed gas in a container.

16. A fragrance dispenser for use with synchronized visual images comprising:
-
a plurality of fragrance dispensers positioned adjacent a person'"'"'s nose for dispensing a fragrance adjacent the person'"'"'s nose, each fragrance dispenser having a housing having a absorbent material therein having a fragrance absorbed therein and said housing having an opening therefrom opened upon said housing being pressurized above a predetermined pressure; and a source of pressurized gas connected to each fragrance dispenser housing for applying a gas under pressure into each said fragrance housing for selectively pressurizing a housing to disperse a fragrance from said housing opening for producing a fragrance upon the application of a gas under pressure into a selected housing;
whereby a fragrance may be dispensed adjacent a person'"'"'s nose responsive to the application of a gas under pressure into said fragrance dispenser housing. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
