“…Though the innovations are abundant, their application in food is at its emerging stage. The basic VR system consisting of HMD and desktop screens is only used in food sensory evaluation; the new lightweight wearable gadgets like wristband-format skin contact conductance sensors, and EEG headbands could be tried in the future and AR contact lens which is highly innovative, and though its application is limited to healthcare monitoring and entertainment it could be tried in future studies (Shaker et al, 2023;Wang, Escobar et al, 2021;Wang, Yap et al, 2021). Likewise, studies on iVR should be improved further so that the participants can walk freely around the VR supermarket, which helps in understanding the consumers' decision-making process.…”

The perceptual behavior of consumers on a product displayed in the market has a vital role in analyzing the importance given to that product. Therefore, various strategies have been developed to understand this consumer behavior in the selection of products. Immersive technologies like virtual, augmented, and mixed reality are among them. With the foremost feature of immersion in the virtual world and interaction of users with virtual objects, virtual reality, and augmented reality have unlocked their potential in research and a user‐friendly tool for analyzing consumer behavior. In addition to these technologies, mixed reality also has a significant role in investigating consumer behavior. Studies on immersive technologies in food applications are vast, hence this review focuses on the applications of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality in the food selection behavior of consumers. The behavioral studies are elicited to develop new products based on consumer needs, to understand the shopping behavior in supermarkets for real‐time usage, and to know the influence of emotions in a selection of products. The findings suggest that virtual, augmented, and mixed reality induce immersion of the users in food selection behavioral studies. Information on the technological advancements in the tools used for bringing immersion and interaction are discussed for its futuristic applications in food. Though immersive technology gives users a realistic virtual environment experience, its application in food systems is in the budding stage. More research on human response studies would contribute to its innovative and inevitable application in the future.

“…As seen in the earlier sections, when the CLBS sensitivity equals or surpasses that of implantable sensors, then typically, the implantable sensor does not flourish. One of the prominent advances in the field of IOP monitoring was the FDA approval of the Sensimed Triggerfish contact lens sensor in 2016 (Triggerfish CLS, Sensimed AG, Lausanne, Switzerland) [111][112][113]. The Triggerfish CLBS is a silicone contact lens that detects changes in the corneoscleral limbus curvature due to changes in IOP variations [114].…”
