robot-thai-foodNot too long ago, we brought you word on how nanoscience could help to the development of a robot that can taste wine better than the trained and expert human tongue. However, what about food – can the same standards and solutions be applied? The Thailand government is set to reveal their project that will standardize the art of Thai food with the assistance from a robot, now how about that? This particular robot is said to be able to scientifically evaluate Thai cuisine, enabling it to figure out the differences and nuances in a pot of green curry, making sure that it comes with the correct mix of Thai basil, curry paste and fresh coconut cream.

This particular robot will not exhibit all that much movement, simply because there is no need to be agile, but what this boxy contraption carries would be a slew of sensors alongside microchips. Known as the e-delicious machine, it will be able to scan through various food samples in order to come up with a chemical signature, where in turn it will perform a measurement against a standard that is touted to be the real deal.

The Thai Delicious Committee, which is financed by the government, has overlooked the e-delicious machine’s development, having described it to be as “an intelligent robot that measures smell and taste in food ingredients through sensor technology in order to measure taste like a food critic.” Will future Thai restaurants that want to draw in customers feature an e-delicious robot stamp of approval?
