A computerized sensory analysis system, based on an IBM‐PC compatible local area network, was developed. Panelist input was simplified through the use of a light pen and interactive questionnaire program. The system was integrated to allow preparation of descriptive, hedonic, triangle, structured and unstructured ballots; registration of panelists; collection of data; statistical analysis and report generation. The primary benefits are the simplicity of response for panelists, flexibility for the sensory analyst to design questionnaires and the elimination of time‐consuming manual scoring and data manipulation involved in conventional sensory analysis.
