Lovers Cups

Filed under: Wine Accessories — Erin @ 9:37 am

Your loved ones may be hundreds of miles away, but a new invention from students at MIT might allow you to nonverbally communicate. The idea, high tech wine glasses that glow using white and red LED lights when a person picks up the cup or puts it to their lips to take a sip.

Less like wine glasses and more like large tumblers, “Lovers Cups” were created by Jackie Lee and Hyemin Chung, who were both looking for ways to have nonverbal communication with their loved ones in Taiwan and Korea. In short distances the glasses can communicate with each other with wireless connections within the glasses, but farther distances require communication over an Internet or mobile phone connection.
