Lickable TV screen that can imitate food flavours unveiled by Japanese professor

A Japanese professor has developed a TV screen prototype, called Taste the TV, that can create taste of particular foods using 10 flavour canisters. A viewer can taste it by licking the screen. The goal is to let people experience "something like eating at a restaurant" elsewhere in the world "while staying at home", Meiji University professor Homei Miyashita said.
