rooster59 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 British Council showcases British innovations in Thailand Tanakorn Sangiam BANGKOK (NNT) - Interesting innovations from the UK are being showcased in Thailand, including a sensory testing room for food evaluation and eye tracking glasses to understand human behavior. They are now on display for interested persons in Thailand to inspect. This is a sensory testing room designed to evaluate the visual, taste, and smell of food according to a food sensory standard from the UK. This room is one of many innovations showcased in a Thai roadshow by the British Council. The room is designed to be completely sealed from outside distractions which may affect food evaluation. Testers, who will be testing food in this room, will have to follow instructions in a questionnaire that can detect the tester’s perception of the food. Another innovative highlight is eye tracking glasses, a device invented to learn more about human vision and reaction to computers and other objects. The glasses can detect what the wearer is looking at and focusing on, allowing for deeper analysis of human behavior. The device can also detect subconscious-level reactions, tracking data accuracy, and analyzing eye viewing ability in real time. -- © Copyright NNT 2019-11-17 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonlover Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Glad to see that the UK is still innovative. The country that heralded in the industrial age still has what it takes to have influence in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see the results of this from a British expat sitting at a bar on Soi Cowboy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaan sailor Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Don’t get me wrong, love the Brits. But didn’t care for their legal system America adopted. Potential lifetime alimony forced me to find a new life here. Oh well, found a much better lady here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilAtUbon Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 The eye tracking glasses are old hat. I saw them on Top Gear donks back when Clarkemy Jericson was using them to track what people were looking at whilst driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scot123 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Yep same old same old twisted taking a pop at the UK and expats being some sort of pervert sitting on a bar stool. Either you are green with envy or you think so lowley of Thai women for looking for a good boyfriend/husband who will love and treat them well. You do not realise Thai women look for the same in Thai men and quite often after their harts have been broken. Anyway take the chip off your shoulder as most expats that marry Thai women are very happy and still married 10~20+ years down the road. Myself we have been together for 15 years and married 13 years with 2 children. Take your mind out of the gutter. Sad but most of those innovations will be stolen by China and copy copy by Thailand with a few claiming it was their invention in a year or so time.

The BKK branch of this franchise was a notorious hotbed of extreme feminist and l*****n politics. Through out the world it has a reputation for being a gay recruiting ground. It is notorious for it's extreme political correctness of the most crass style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
