XR research aims to make plant-based food more appealing

Researchers in Finland are using extended reality (XR) to influence how people experience food, in an effort to support more sustainable and health-conscious diets.

The Research Council of Finland has funded a project led by Professor Roope Raisamo at Tampere University and Research Professor Nesli Sözer at VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. The aim is to use XR technology to improve the sensory appeal of vegetarian food.
