Abstract(in English) This paper describes sensory integration using the food simulator. A taste of food arises from mixture of auditory, chemical, and force sensation. The food simulator is a haptic interface that can generate a force to user's teeth when the user bites a food. It consists of a film-like force sensor and one degree-of-freedom manipulator. The food simulator generates a food texture according to the force profile captured from a user's biting force of a real food. Then the profile of the biting force is replayed by controlling the reaction force of the device. By development of Food Simulator, we can extract only texture from taste. We experimented in sensory integration using texture, sound, and the taste. Our goal is to study integration among sensory modalities regarding a taste of food.
