4D TV

This post is inspired by the Tasty TV. People tend to say "only in Japan" and the Japanese have created wonderful (and in some cases, weird) inventions as their gifts to the world.

This TV allows us to taste what we see on the screen by mixing the flavours. We can lick the TV surface and savour the food that is being cooked/ shown on TV. Basically I see 'promotional' type tastes e.g. chips or candy > sellers can probably set the "taste profile" for the programmer to set it on the TV?

Hygiene-wise, this is probably a personal TV/ device. Can't imagine sharing the TV with your housemates, or office mates, or a family of people licking the same TV 😱

If the TV is commercially available, will there be 'fake' versions.. or cheaper alternatives of taste spray/ flavours? What is the warranty like for these types of TV?

Let's see what happens next with this device. With anything from Japan, and more recently inventions from China (and upcoming India) too, I tend to watch with interest.
