China developed food tasting robots

Robots equipped with sensors, imitating the functions of human eyes, nose and tongue devouring food.

Its mission is to sample the sample to ensure the quality of mass-produced foods. And according to Hoa Nam Nhat Bao (SCMP), such robots have saved the country's food processing industry hundreds of millions of dollars each year.

Recently, the Chinese government has issued a series of new regulations for specific foods. For example, packaged sliced ​​pork, needs to be in 10 cm long pieces - authorities said. In addition, there are some other exact requirements regarding colors, flavors, .

Artificial intelligence equipped with food tasting robots will analyze the data obtained from its sensors, which can detect and monitor differences faster than humans. According to the SCMP report, this system can achieve accuracy of up to 90% of people, while completely eliminating bias or bias due to individual taste.

Therefore, many reviews of automated testing systems are good for the purpose of increasing output and business operations, while the robot's tongue does not require oxygen to breathe. However, some Chinese food experts tell SCMP that the taste appraisal should still be done by humans.

'Chinese cuisine is extremely complicated, is the world's best and it is very difficult to standardize,' said Sun Lin, director of the Chinese Food Association's foreign affairs director. So, 'Judging and distinguishing taste is not easy. I don't think AI can accomplish this task within the next two or three decades. '
