The oculus interfaces with the Omni.  Yes and there are even 3 currently
existing machines that  simulate aroma for games and software but I am not
in a position to purchase any atm.  We may be able to build something
though. I was also planning on building a fan/vent system to blow
temperature controlled air over you as you walked through the virtual
environment.  I am trying to tie it all together in a custom game made in
unity.  You can also use any other HMD created for VR with it.
