Jan. 22, 2025

At the 32nd Workshop on Interactive Systems and Software (WISS2024), which was held at the Naeba Prince Hotel (Niigata Prefecture) from December 11 to 13, 2024, KASAHARA Nobuhito, FUKAIKE Miku, a first-year master’s degree student in the Frontier Media Science Program, Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences, Professor MIYASHITA Homei, and others won the Dialogue Presentation Award (General) for “TTTV4: Personal media for taste that presents flavors in every bite.” The Dialogue Presentation Award is an award given to an excellent research presentation at a demonstration based on a vote by participants.

The purpose of this research is to substantialize "personal media for taste," and the hardware and software of the cutlery-type taste display device, TTTV4, were prototyped. By providing an interface that can be used by a variety of target users, it is possible to adjust the taste for each individual and for each bite.
In the demonstration, participants experienced changing the taste of milk to that of clam chowder or strawberry milk using the TTTV4, and experienced adjusting the taste to their favorite using voice input via LLM.
