Print a Postcard That Smells Like Food

Zhu Jingxuan, a student from Donghua University's Fashion & Art Design Institute, has come up with what could be a revolutionary sharing device, and a foodie's dream come true. The prototype is a combination camera, smell extractor, and printer -- that will capture a photo and the aroma of your meal, then print it onto a postcard with the food's smell embedded.

The idea for the 'Food Printer' was inspired by Zhu's travel overseas, and wanting a better way of sharing her food experiences with friends and family back home. Sounds great... But can we get Instagram on that thing?

Hoax or not, in my opinion, it's a pretty dumb idea.
Would I send one...Nope.
Would I like to get one in my mailbox...not really.

As soon as pornographers get hold of this idea, it is going to go very wrong.

Great idea, now if that same idea and principle could be incorporated into televisions and monitors that would be AWESOME.
