In other words, I believe that many people will always sigh when watching food programs: "If you can taste the food on the screen, how good it would be..."
This sounds like a fantasy, but some time ago, a Japanese scientist (almost) realized this wish.
The Japanese professor and 30 students developed a prototype TV screen that can be "licked", called "TTTV".
This is not the professor's stuttering when introducing the name, the name of this TV is called "Taste The TV", referred to as "TTTV", which translates to "Taste TV".
（TTTV）
So why does this tasteable TV make people taste it?
The principle is that inside the TV there is a conveyor belt consisting of 10 seasoning cans, and when the user needs a certain taste, these taste tanks will spray out various spices in proportion to form a specific taste.
These flavors are sprayed onto a rollable sanitary film, which is then rolled over the screen for the viewer to taste.
The professor said that the cost of the TV was about $875,
In the context of COVID-19, this technology can strengthen people's connection and interaction with the outside world.
His goal is for people to experience what it's like to eat in a restaurant on the other side of the world, even when they're staying at home.
In addition to this, this tasteable TV has some other directions of application.
For example, it can help bartenders and chefs learn remotely, or you can work with certain companies to design an experience that allows the audience to dip bread into the screen...
In short, the professor hopes to create a platform in the future, just like today's music platform, so that users can download and taste the taste of the world.
How to say it...
This strange invention really hit the pain points of netizens, and even some people asked questions on the forum:
"Some researchers have invented a TV screen that can be licked, which can simulate taste. What would you "see" with it first? ”
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Especially when they walked into the factory for the first time and saw the candy house!!
British Baking Competition
I would ask my family for all the home videos of my grandmother cooking.
There are also perverted netizens who say:
“Two girls one cup”
(Don't search...) ）
Of course, for such a strange invention, not only some people think of beautiful food, many netizens have also opened strange brain holes:
So what happens when a rainbow candy ad suddenly cuts to an adult diaper ad?
Can't wait to see X-movies!
Replace the title: Japan revolutionized the adult industry... second!
Coincidentally, the number of epidemic cases in Japan (during the invention of television) has increased rapidly, and experts do not know the cause and are investigating.
One day, drunkards will throw beer bottles at the TV, and baseball players can feel it.
Shows like Kitchen Nightmare are even uglier...
So? My TV screen can be licked all the time, it tastes like TV...
Well...... How to say it, no one can foresee whether a new invention is good or bad,
But if there is such a TV that can be tasted, it is still quite interesting...
