Digital Sensory Science: Applications in New Product Development provides a comprehensive overview of digital sensory science, an area that has broadly been defined as the use of technology to capture or model human sensory perception. This book provides methods on how to best recruit and train sensory panels, suggestions for data capture and data analysis, an overview of sensory science instruments, and information on the use and relevance of virtual and augmented reality to capture sensory perception.
This book offers practical guidance to researchers in and practitioners of sensory and consumer science alike.
? Explores how technologies create further opportunities around the use of sensory panels, instrumentation and flavor, biometrics and implicit measures, immersion and context, and communication of sensory findings ? Presents these opportunities with case studies ? Provides guidance for both researchers and practitioners of sensory science in a digital age1. Chapter 1 : Introduction - p. Page xi 2.
