The Aroma Kiosk Gathers Insights & Makes Real-Time Recommendations

The compact kiosk taps into Givaudan’s state-of-the-art artificial intelligence algorithm, ATOM 2.0, so that passersby can rate different aroma profiles and get a better sense of their individual preferences.

Industry Implications
