MUST SEE: the virtual aroma synthesiser

The virtual aroma synthesiser (VAS), a proprietary sensory measurement instrument from Givaudan, is a tool that I wish to see, test and use.
It allows Givaudan's customers to create their own fragrances. The VAS consists of a series of jars, each containing an aroma compound. A stream of nitrogen flows through selected jars and the aroma compounds mix together. Customers can smell the resultant mixture and adjust the concentrations of individual compounds until they find an aroma that they are happy with.
Unfortunatelly the information about VAS is scarce on the web, even on Givaudan site. Does anyone have a picture or details about this tool?
