Not The Onion: Nivea made a smartphone case and an app to tell you how much you stink
According to Nivea, humans are generally pretty bad at smelling their own odor, and men in particular have 40% less stench-perceiving brain neurons than women. Coincidentally, they are also found to sweat more. Yikes! Recognizing the problem, Nivea invented the NOSE app and case and plans to test them around the world before unleashing the double whammy on the market. The smartphone covers are equipped with special sensor-flaunting gadgetry and are going to be sold as part of a body care package, while the apps will be available in the App Store and Google Play.
Nivea also thinks that such technology will come natively within smartphones of the near future. Indeed, we can easily see the likes of Samsung and LG implementing a smell-o-meter app inside their human-friendly software, spawning a generation of sweaty men holding their phones under their armpits in anxious anticipation of the result. Greatness awaits!
