Method and system of a networked scent diffusion device

A method managing scent in an environment, comprising:

• disposing at least one scent diffusiondevice within the environment, wherein the at least one scent diffusion device comprises a communications facility that enables transmitting signals to and receiving signals from a remote computer;
• receiving at least one target value of a scent parameter for the environment at the remote computer;
• and
• controlling, via the remote computer, a diffusion rate of a liquid from a source of the liquid in fluid communication with the at least one scent diffusion device to achieve the target value of the scent parameter,
• wherein the at least one scent diffusion device further includes a pump configured to draw liquid from the source to enable diffusion,
• wherein controlling the diffusion rate of the liquid includes modifying a performance of the pump of the at least one scent diffusion device through at least one of pulse width modulation (PWM) and pulse amplitude modulation (PAM),
• wherein controlling the diffusion rate of the liquid includes external control of power going to the pump by altering a voltage applied across the pump of the at least one scent diffusion device, controlling the voltage driving the pump enabling remote control of the diffusion rate of the at least one scent diffusion device, independent of the voltage range and independent of duty cycle, and
• wherein the at least one scent diffusion device further includes a scent cartridge to achieve the scent parameter, the scent cartridge including a hydrogen fuel cell-mediated fluid delivery head assembly.

A method of managing scent in an environment, comprising:

• disposing a plurality of scent diffusion devices within the environment, wherein the diffusion devices comprise a communications facility that enables transmitting signals to and receiving signals from a local area network control device;
• networking the local area network control device to each of the plurality of scent diffusion devices, wherein the local area network control device receives communications from and distributes control instructions to the plurality of scent diffusion devices;
• disposing at least one sensor within the environment that transmits sensor data to the local area network control device;
• receiving at least one scent parameter for scenting an environment at the local area network control device;
• and
• controlling, via the local area network control device, the diffusion of a liquid, from a scent cartridge of the scent diffusion device to achieve the scent parameter, wherein the scent cartridge includes a hydrogen fuel cell-mediated fluid delivery head assembly, and
• wherein controlling includes setting or adjusting an operation parameter of one or more of the scent diffusion devices in response to the sensor data.
