Family relationships are undergoing a rapid evolution due to the busy life styles of people. Less physical interaction between family members have made our lives more isolated. The kitchen is a significant place for the family members to interact with In general, the time spent with our family is more centrally located around the kitchen space.

Future Work – Brain Stimulation

Identification – Identify corresponding areas (nucleus) in the brain by observing fMRI data induced by natural food and chemical compounds Stimulation - Stimulate identified nucleus by magnetic stimulation to regenerate the brain activities Perception - Create perception of tasting real food or smelling real scent
