This paper presents a portable, affordable, multi-channel odor delivery device for efficient and flexible odor delivery, suitable for research and clinical applications, including smell testing. The device overcomes limitations of existing methods by offering 24 individual odor channels with high temporal precision, avoiding cross-contamination. Digital control via a mobile application allows for rapid, flexible odor sequencing. The device has undergone experimental validation and patient testing, demonstrating potential for self-administered smell tests in various settings.
