Google gets patent for a new body odor removing device
Google has reportedly received a new patent for a device which wards off body odor. This is almost like a wearable which can be attached either to your neck or the waistline, and then do its magic.
To fight off body odor, the device will sense the physical activity of the user wearing the device and emit fragrance which will counter the odor. It also has tiny fans which can help decrease body odor. Google originally applied for the patent back in 2012, but it took the USPTO until now (Feb 10) to grant them the patent.
The device can also alert you when your friends are within proximity, so that you can avoid bumping into them. The device will give you alternative directions to your destination so as to avoid meeting someone you know.
Since this is only a patent application at the moment, there’s no word on whether this device will ever come to fruition. It seems too early for a product like this to make the shelves, so it’s possible that Google will wait a couple of years before bringing this to the market.
