At Meiji University, a private research institution in central Tokyo, Miyashita leads a team of about 30 students, who come up with new application ideas for flavor-related commercial offerings. Miyashita estimates that a commercial version of the TTTV prototype, which he built himself over the last year, would cost around $ 875 (100,000 yen).

Getting close to the screen and licking it doesn’t seem very pleasant, but you don’t really have to do it to try pioneering “spray technology”. Miyashita is already in talks with several companies about the development of other commercial uses, such as “a device that can apply flavor of pizza or chocolate to a slice of toast ”. (I)
