A Japanese Company Nomura has created a jukebox-inspired juice maker than can now give you a unique juice on the basis of the song you choose as per a Reuters report.
The new gadget, called the Squeeze Music Blender, lets music lovers ‘taste’ songs by blending a glass of juice according to the mood of the song.
The algorithms programmed on the machine will allow it to make a drink based on a song, say a sweet drink for a happy song and bitter drink for one with jazz beats.
The machine coverts happy, exciting, romantic, sentimental and sad into sour, astringent, salty and bitter tastes respectively and then blends it into a juice drink.
How does it work?
The juice machine works on the principle of waveform and how different wavelengths are analysed by the machines. The machine takes five feelings from the song and assigns it a flavour.
The developers are eyeing the device as a perfect attraction at music concerts and festivals.
"At a music festival, for example, you can enjoy the experience to have a drink blended according to a song while listening to it at the gig. Moreover, we can mix alcohol so it could be served as cocktails in a bar if people want to try that out." Akinori Goto, designer for Nomura Co. Ltd. Nomlab and developer of Squeeze Music, told Reuters.

The device is still in the prototype stage and creators are aiming to commercialise it in the future.
