About

Jisun Hwang is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of food science, sensory technology, and robotics. Her primary research areas include human-robot interaction in food service, sensory evaluation, and consumer behavior toward automated food technologies. Hwang’s most notable contribution is her groundbreaking 2023 study comparing robot versus human baristas, which analyzed volatile compound profiles, consumer acceptance, and emotional responses to brewed coffee. This work, garnering 10 citations, addresses critical debates about technology’s role in food preparation and consumer attitudes. Her earlier research in 2002 on robot direct-teaching tools for industrial applications, though less cited, demonstrates her long-standing expertise in robotics engineering. Hwang’s work uniquely bridges engineering and sensory science, offering valuable insights into how automation affects food quality and consumer experience. Her research has significant implications for the food industry, particularly as robotic integration accelerates. By combining rigorous chemical analysis with human-centered evaluation, Hwang provides a comprehensive understanding of how robotic food preparation impacts both product quality and consumer perception.
