Simulation Lab
Different degrees of immersion in virtual realities can be studied. The lab can simulate sounds, temperatures and visual surroundings by Virtual Reality goggles.
By creating such Virtual Realities, researchers can study how contextual factors affect food preferences, choice of products, the desire to eat or possibly appetite. Using Virtual Reality, one can put people in different contexts using 3D movies of real life or a computer designed copy of different scenarios.
