ABSTRACT:
A television receiver includes structure for receiving video and audio signals in addition to a transmission section for converting a composite signal in which a video signal and a smell signal are mixed. The smell signal is generated at an amplifier of a TV camera. The television receiver includes a detection circuit for sensing the smell signal. Upon sensing the smell signal, the smell signal can be used for actuating a plurality of smells located in separate smell emitting devices. These emitting devices include, for example, a heating plate and a fan which upon actuation causes perfume in the emitting device to be emitted. This device is then defused into, for example, a room and the smell matches a picture shown on the CRT. This enables a viewer to not only hear and see the picture from a television but also to sense smell related to the contents of the displayed picture.
