چکیده
The Food Simulator is a haptic interface that presents biting force. A taste of food arises from mixture of chemical, auditory, olfactory and haptic sensation. Haptic sensation while eating is a remained problem in taste display. The Food Simulator generates force to the user’s teeth to display food texture. The device is composed of four linkages. The mechanical configuration of the device is designed to fit to the mouth. A force sensor is attached to the end effecter. The Food Simulator generates force according to the force profile captured from a real food. The device is integrated with auditory and chemical display for multimodal sensation in taste.

Use of a General Process Simulator in the Food Industry
The aim of this work was to illustrate the use of a general process simulators, developed for the Chemical Industry, to the Food Industry. It was considered ProSimPlus as the simulator and was used to simulate a milk pasteurization process (HTST). The simulation process diagram was developed on the simulator as well as a data base with data and relationships to compute the physical properties o...
متن کاملChewing Simulation, a Way to Understand the Relationships between Mastication, Food Breakdown and Flavour Release
Understanding in-mouth mechanisms is necessary to understand flavour release and perception phenomena. To overcome the limitations of in-vivo flavour release measurements, we developed a chewing simulator that faithfully reproduced many mouth functions. Using brittle foods, we showed that in-vitro food breakdown was very comparable to that obtained in-vivo. We also studied on model cheeses in-v...
متن کاملA Microcomputer-Based Simulator for Digital Control Systems
A microcomputer-based simulator for digital control systems is proposed. The proposed simulator is a hybrid system in which the plant is simulated by conventional method of analog computers and other parts of the system including generation of input signal is performed digitally, using a Z-80 based microcomputer. To overcome the difficulty of programming in assembly language, and at the same ti...

The spacecraft simulator robust control through H∞-based linear matrix inequality (LMI) and robust adaptive method is implemented. The spacecraft attitude control subsystem simulator consists of a platform, an air-bearing and a set of four reaction wheels. This set up provides a free real-time three degree of freedom rotation. Spacecraft simulators are applied in upgrading and checking the c...
متن کاملComparison of IVP-simulator and 99mTc-DMSA renal scaning for renal localization and shielding in candidates for radiation therapy [Persian]
To minimize renal radiation in abdomical radiotherapy, shielding of the kidneys is essential. IVP-simulator is used as an standard method. In this study, we used 99mTc-DMSA to localize and shield the Kidneys and we compared this method with IVP-simulator. The size of the kidneys was proven to be larger as compared with IVP method. The mean of the overlap percentage was 81.88 in right and ...
