Intelligent built-in LED screen tumbler water can satisfy a craving

Lei Feng network news, since the birth of smart cups have been burdened with too much criticism. Criticism of the industry for smart Cup project focused on:

1, drinking water is really just need, but smart is not just need. Intelligent concept has become the ultimate weapon entrepreneurs raise the ability of the products, for them, there is no "intelligent" concept, which can bring the price to sell the cup hundreds? Based on this starting point, a bunch of fancy smart features came into being, such as remote remind friends to drink water, App water reminder, etc..

2, drinking water data value. Although most of the smart glass have emphasized accuracy, can obtain the daily drinking water cup intelligent monitoring, but for users, the data is not much sense, can not produce standard guidance on their daily drinking habits. Users want is not the data, but the data corresponding to health advice.

As the representative of the domestic smart cup entrepreneurs, the team is also open to reflect the two major issues. Company founder Li Xiaoliang WeChat in today's new conference in front of more than 300 hardware circle of entrepreneurs, media reporters said, "we hope that the smart glass in any case intelligence, first of all, it should be a good cup". What kind of product is considered a good cup? What are the criteria for a good smart glass? At the WeChat conference, Li Xiaoliang announced the results of their thinking for half a year, launched a new brand of products - Seed intelligent accompanying cup.

Seed intelligent accompanying cup

From a positive point of view, Seed intelligent accompanying cup and general thermos cup is not much difference. Brushed stainless steel surface, colorful appearance, metal texture of the cup cover, and Cuptime modern sense of design, you will not be Seed and the concept of smart cups linked. In the impression, the body of the smart cup should have a LED breathing lights, deliberately eye-catching shape design, and these are not reflected in the body of the Seed cup. Earlier there was a smart Cup project entrepreneur said, a smart cup, if the appearance of the first time can not attract users, it means that it will lose 80% of users. "

Do not rely on the design to attract users, then open for the good cup of understanding what is it? Li Xiaoliang said, a good cup, must be in the material, shape, capacity, appearance, technology, features and other aspects are diverse, so that users will feel good, feel good! Based on this standard, the team began to open the wheat in the Seed smart cup material, appearance, function, etc..

After a long investigation, the cup body material, Seed chose to import Japanese Nippon Steel 304 stainless steel. According to reports, this material compared to domestic stainless steel, stainless steel produced by South Korea has relatively high stability, salt spray test can ensure that there is no rust. In addition, as a thermal insulation Cup, the insulation performance of the cup is also an important aspect of team considerations. Finally, the choice of "sandwich copper plating and nitrogen welding process", which can ensure that the vacuum sandwich, eliminate the heat conduction of the material itself, enhance the thermal insulation performance of the cup.

But after all, Seed is a smart cup. With the smart gene of the wheat open, how to get rid of the smart cup long-standing pseudo intelligence concept, restore the real intelligence to the user? The solution is to open the wheat team all intelligent function design in the "Cup", the amount of drinking water, drinking water monitoring functions, temperature monitoring, temperature warning reminder, expired remind users to touch the water, cup cover can view the water temperature in the cup. All the information is through the interaction of the cup on the LED dot matrix screen to achieve, get rid of the past need to view the information through the App operation.

Seed intelligent accompanying cup

It is worth mentioning that, how to accurately detect the amount of water in the cup has been a technical difficulty. Is the technical principle of the pressure sensor to detect the Cuptime generation, although released at the conference of the 2 generation of Cuptime using capacitive pressure sensor, but still can not fundamentally solve the detection problem in a variety of application scenarios of smart glass, such as a smart cup like needs to be placed on the desktop to detect stationary immediately after the drink, water can not be measured, to a certain extent affected the accuracy of the data. To solve this problem, Seed uses Air-Elastic technology, through the monitoring of the air in the cup, to achieve indirect monitoring of water and water, without any contact, you can measure the water volume, as Li Xiaoliang has emphasized the "air know everything". According to reports, the wheat has been applied for Air-Elastic technology patents.

Overall, only from the "smart" angle to judge the Seed of this product, and there will be a bonus too much, there is no data on the tall analysis, does not require a App connection, but also complicated functions of products, but this does not hinder our definition for its smart glass. In terms of user needs, Seed does not give up the opportunity to innovate, the new technology to hide it. For some unnecessary demand, Mai Kai did as much as possible restraint. This design considerations, not only reflects the "intelligent regression demand" product concept, but also control the price of Seed. Compared with the general price of a few hundred dollars per hundred cups of smart water compared to 129 yuan pricing conscience. In addition, the design can be customized appearance, but also to Seed consumer groups have a certain degree of extension
