Despite ongoing efforts, vegan mayonnaise still faces significant challenges, including differences in taste, texture, and dipping behaviour compared to the egg-based versions. These issues limit their appeal and potential for reaching its full customer base. The key issue is the fundamental limitation of natural plant proteins in emulsion stability. Unlike egg proteins, which provide both emulsification and gel-like structure, plant proteins lack the same interfacial properties. To compensate, food additives are used to improve texture, but this in turn affects taste and viscosity. Without proteins that have more egg-like properties, vegan mayo will continue to face texture and taste challenges that limit its market potential.

Read moreInteractive Image Descriptions
Existing image descriptions often lack context or detail and fail to meet the diverse needs of people with visual impairment. Preferences vary widely based on factors such as the type and onset of visual impairment, age, and personal interests. A one-size-fits-all approach to image descriptions is inadequate, highlighting the need for customizable, context-aware solutions. As mentioned in the article “The Accessible Books Consortium: what it means for publishers” by Catherline Jewell in WIPO magazine in 2018, globally, less than 10% of published works are available in accessible formats, leaving a significant gap inclusive for people with visual impairments. Accessibility and inclusivity has often been an ignored segment. This project investigates how artificial intelligence (AI) and interactive technologies can bridge this gap - and develops other integrate the solution that fits well with the need and real life scenario of target users.
