Background Information
SLIDE 3 Background Information
- Smart devices have become necessary.
- There have been products monitoring liquid intake.
- However, they can only sense the temperature or record the volume of
water.
SLIDE 4 Background Information
- Caffeinism & Alcoholism
- Caffeinism : headache, nervousness and insomnia ; serious
health issues.
- Alcoholism : mental and physical health problems, even death.
SLIDE 5
Objective
SLIDE 6 Aims & Objectives
- Counting water intake
- Counting caffeine intake
- Counting alcohol intake
- Giving feedback on drinking
- Setting medicine-taking
reminder
- Not only for the caffeine or
alcohol addictive, but also for common people who are concerned about this problem.

Methodology
Part I : Water Counting
SLIDE 13 Methodology - water counting
- HY-SRF05 ultrasonic distance sensor
SLIDE 14 Methodology - water counting
Arduino code will take the time interval between the sending and receiving ultrasonic waves and calculate distance.
SLIDE 15 Methodology - water counting
- The effect of angle of reflection is neglected.
- Total volume of the cup is input manually at the start.
- The Python code will calculate the volume of liquid and
store it into a text file.
- The shape of the cup is considered column.
SLIDE 16
Methodology
Part II : Caffeine Counting
SLIDE 17 Methodology - caffeine counting
- As an organic solute, liquid chromatography is commonly
used to detect the presence of caffeine.
- it is impossible to directly measure the amount of caffeine
- f the drink in the cup with present sensors, while still let
the liquid in the cup edible.
- A code in the Python interface is set up for the cup.

Part III : Temperature Sensing
SLIDE 22 Methodology - temperature sensing
sensor
readings with 0.1s time interval
SLIDE 23 Methodology - temperature sensing
SLIDE 24 Hypotheses
- There is correlation between
temperature, the concentration
- f alcohol in the liquid, and the
concentration of alcohol in the air above the liquid.

Methodology
Part IV : Alcohol Counting
SLIDE 26 Methodology - alcohol counting
- MQ3 ethanol sensor
- Experiment settings
SLIDE 27 Methodology - alcohol counting
SLIDE 28 Methodology - alcohol counting
SLIDE 29 Methodology - alcohol counting
SLIDE 30 Methodology - alcohol counting
○ Ratio of liquid volume against the cup’s volume is not included as a variable. ○ The time duration between pouring the liquid and taking measurement is not included as a variable. ○ The temperature range selected is small, reducing the reliability of the result.

Methodology
Part V : Feedback Function
SLIDE 32 Methodology - feedback function
- Retrieve data stored in the text file
- Compare to actual standard of adult liquid intake (Mayo
Clinic)
- Guide users to drink healthily
Data Sample

Methodology
Part VI : Reminder Function
SLIDE 34 Methodology - reminder function
○ make time manipulatable
○ keep function running as other functions are called
SLIDE 35 Methodology - reminder function

Results Conclusion Future Work
SLIDE 37 Results & Conclusion
- Fully functioning smart device
SLIDE 38 Results & Conclusion
- Fully functioning smart device.
- Choice of sensors and accuracy of measurements are
limited to reduce cost and unnecessary calculation.
- Emphasize on the ingredients in the liquid and giving apt
guidance for users to drink healthily.
SLIDE 39 Future Improvements
- Add bluetooth function to be wireless.
- Downsize the hardware to make it more practical.
- Conduct more validation on the accuracy of the sensors,
and more tests on how long they can keep working for.
- Transfer the program into mobile app in GUI
- Add function of sugar and calorie counting
