Move over taste testers, there’s a new contender in the world of flavour evaluation — and it’s made out of circuits and sensors.

And eventually, scientists say the technology could be used to find contaminants in foods that could make consumers sick, or detect when something is no longer safe to eat.

Researchers from Penn State in Pennsylvania have developed an electronic tongue that identifies differences in similar liquids, such as milk with varying water content, and products like soda types and coffee blends. It can even distinguish between Pepsi and Coke with a high degree of accuracy.

The research, published Wednesday in Nature, found the AI tongue is capable of detecting, classifying, and assessing the quality and freshness of different substances. This means that if milk is contaminated, the tongue may be able to detect it.
