We have invented devices to record what we can see, and devices to record what we can hear.

How would this work if we did?
\[When I am travelling I really wish I could record the way things smell, because smell is so strongly evocative of memories and sensations.\]

Probably a decade ago, a company developed a scent organ designed to be hooked up to a computer for games and websites.
