“Olfacio” is an extension of De Cupere’s work, which consists of multi-sensory exhibits that pair images with an appropriate scent. Some of his recent exhibitions featured the smell of sweat and cigarette butts, so we were relieved to know that his iPad game focuses on the inviting fragrances of fine flowers.
“Olfacio” wasn’t the only app at SxSW 2014 that utilized Cartamundi’s interactive card technology. The card maker demoed a simple “Smurfs” application that allowed users to place virtual stickers on an iPad’s screen by tapping that character’s respective card onto the display. Also shown was a “Shrek”-themed scavenger hunt game, which used custom cards that allowed users to zoom into the environment and find hidden characters.
