The digital technologies used in sensory and consumer science have changed considerably over the last few decades, such as software for sensory data capture, devices and software for physiological and emotional response measurement, the use of sensor technology (e.g. e-nose and e-tongue) to assess sensory profiles and the use of virtual, augmented and mixed reality (MR) to create relevant contexts for sensory consumer studies. This chapter aims to give an overview of different digital data collection tools available to capture sensory and consumer data. The case study highlights an innovative approach to designing an immersive environment for the evaluation of sensory properties of a semisolid food product using MR. Consumer experience of such technology is also discussed, along with the key challenges. In addition, more advanced technologies for sensory research are presented providing perspectives on the future of sensory and consumer science in the digital world.
