ISD Research Team Showcased 3D Food Printing Technology at Hong Kong Science Museum's Members' Day

Prof. Mitch LI’s team from the Division of Integrative Systems and Design was cordially invited to be the guest speaker of "Members' Day: Sci-Fi or not?", organized by Hong Kong Science Museum on Mar 28, 2024. 

They held four sessions of technical demonstration - Sci-Fi Gastronomy: 3D Food Printing, to explain the basic concepts of 3D food printing and the process of AI digital food design to the participants. Contents included the demonstrations of generating 3D models using AI programs and big data platforms, the customization of the shape, size and texture of food using self-developed software, and the use of a food printer for real-time printing and heating to create delicious and unique 3D printing cookies. 

The sessions were well-received, and participants were overjoyed to gain more insight into this fascinating invention and learn one of the technologies that could benefit our community and beyond.
