Advancing Australia’s hospitality industry through interactive food

该项目旨在开发交互式食品设计的第一个框架，以推进澳大利亚的酒店业。该项目预计将与餐馆老板和厨师共同开发交互式声音、气味和味觉技术，使他们能够创造新颖的外出就餐体验，并评估食客的反应。预期的结果是一个易于使用的工具包（包括一套软件和低成本传感器），可以很容易地纳入酒店业务。这应该会带来显著的好处，比如吸引人们外出就餐，支持澳大利亚60万个酒店业工作岗位中的一部分，同时促进澳大利亚创新的饮食文化。

This project aims to develop the first framework for the design of interactive food to advance Australia’s hospitality industry. The project expects to co-develop with restaurateurs and chefs interactive sounds, smells and tastes technologies that enable them to create novel eating out experiences and evaluate diners’ reactions. The expected outcome is an easy-to-use toolkit (comprising a software suite and low-cost sensors) that can be readily incorporated into hospitality operations. This should provide significant benefits, such as enticing people to go out and visit restaurants, supporting some of Australia’s 600,000 hospitality jobs while fostering Australia’s innovative food culture.
