Electronic language analyzes the taste of real foods and recreates in the user’s oral cavity using chemical compounds.
The system uses five basic taste stimuli: salt (salty taste), citric acid (acidic), glucose (sweet), magnesium (bitter) and glutamate (minds).
The sensors determine the concentration of these substances in foods, convert them into digital data, and then the pump offers the desired hydrogel combination under the user language.
During the experiments, volunteers were able to distinguish the virtual tastes of lemonade, cake, fried eggs, fish soup and coffee with more than 80%accuracy. However, scientists admit that perception is incomplete without fragrance and visual context.
