Curious about eye-tracking and food products? Participate in a study in May!

Over the next two weeks, we’re conducting a study at Flavoria, and we’d like to invite you to participate. The study will take less than 10 minutes of your time each week. During the session, you’ll have the opportunity to examine some samples of cured meat and vegetarian products while your eye movements are tracked using a standard commercial tracking system attached to a pair of glasses. Following this, you’ll be asked to complete a brief questionnaire. Please note that this study solely involves visual inspection of the products; there’s no tasting involved.

Time: May 13th to 24th, various time slots to choose from – please note that you need to come twice
Place: Aistikattila, Medisiina D, Kiinamyllynkatu 10

Who can participate?

The only requirement for participation is that:

  • you do not wear glasses (contact lenses are acceptable)
  • you generally consume meat.

If you’re interested in taking part, kindly share your email with us, and we’ll send you a link with various time slots for you to choose from. Please note that you will need to come twice: once in each of the following weeks for less than 10 minutes each time.
