Title:

    Lover's cups: connecting you and your love one

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    Lover’s Cups explore the idea of sharing the moment of drinking between a couple in different locations. Cups have been essential daily objects to people’s life since thousands of years ago. In this paper, we digitally augmented cups as communication interfaces for drinking. A pair of cups is wireless connected to each other with sip sensors and LED illumination. When your love one is taking a sip, your Lover’s Cup will glow as shown in Figure 1. If both of you drink at the same time, Lover’s Cups will glow as the celebration for the shared intimacy between you and your love one.
