About Water Housekeeper Reminder and Recorder

Water Housekeeper is a smart insulated water cup designed to support regular drinking habits. Sensors record the daily water intake of the user, and a mobile application shows the amount consumed in real time. The cup calculates the next reminder time and displays the water temperature when the central touch button is pressed. A touch can also send a light signal to a paired cup, so distant family and friends can remind each other. The body is sprayed with transparent material, and the inner tank is made of polished 316 stainless steel for better heat retention.
