Japanese scientists have developed an "edible robot" to create a new food experience

Recently, a robot named "Bread Superman", the world's first robot for food, was successfully developed. The robot is composed of edible part and metal part with gelatin as raw material. Its surface has two round "eyes", which can wave "hands" and make a sound: "Hello! I'm looking forward to talking with you today." Associate Professor Nakata Jiahong is the leader of this project. When talking about what the robot can do, He said his goal was to create a new eating experience.

Yoshihiro Nakada said that "bread superman" is one of the design inspiration sources that tear a part of his face for others to eat. "Bread Superman will tear a part off his face and give it to others. People will feel extraordinary delicious and become refreshed after eating it." He thus made a hypothesis: human taste may change by communicating with food.

Nakata further explained that if robots are regarded as "communication objects", humans will have some feelings, which will have a greater impact on the taste or feelings they taste. "If the relevant role can be gradually confirmed, perhaps people can use robots to eat the food they don't like." This research result has attracted wide attention and is considered to be an important trend in the future catering industry.
