An Intelligent Liquid Intake Measurement Device

摘要

The present invention relates to a liquid retaining device for providing the actual amount of liquid intake by a user, comprising: a) a container body having a bottom wall and side walls, wherein the inside surface of the bottom and side walls is a non-conductive layer; b) at least one pair of sensors in form of capacitive strips that are embedded within the side walls in such a way that each strip extends from top to bottom of the side wall, such that the non-conductive layer serves as a dielectric in a capacitor composed of said capacitive strips a conductive liquid within said container body, thereby the readings of said sensors indicates the liquid level inside the container body across the side wall; and c) an electronic module that includes a control logic for handling the readings of said sensors, thereby enabling to convert said readings into the actual amount of liquid intake.
