First taste television developed: taste what you see on ‘lick TV’


If we go to Daily food We will not only get to see what Jeroen Meus makes, but we will also be able to taste it. A Japanese pro has designed a lick TV. By licking the screen, you also taste what you see.

Let it be clear: it will be a few years before you have such a lick TV in your living room. But they are working on it. And it works.

The device, which is named ‘Taste the TV‘ (‘Taste the TV’) uses a carousel of ten ‘flavor patterns’ that combine to give off the taste and smell of a particular type of food. The substance is then sprayed onto a hygienic foil that has been rolled over a flat TV screen, so that the TV viewer can lick the screen.

It seems a little strange, someone licking a TV. But according to Professor Homei Miyashita of Meiji University in Tokyo, it has everything to succeed. And once everyone has such a TV, it will be the most natural thing in the world to lick our TV when we see something delicious to taste the taste. “People will be able to taste the food from the best restaurants in the world, among other things, without going outside.”

The pro is now trying to commercialize the prototype of the ‘lick TV’. Many large multimedia companies are already interested, it sounds like. A commercial version could be put on the market for about 800 euros.

Yuki Hou, a student at Meiji University who ‘Taste the TV‘ was able to try out, was already wildly enthusiastic. “It really does taste like milk chocolate,” she said after running her tongue across the screen.
